Ochoco Sunset Agate is an agate mined by Bill Quant in Oregon's Ochoco Mountains. It is a jasp-agate with considerable variety - it can have marcasite-like pattern, moss agate, fish egg patterns, and often features an attractive sunset-like scene with warm colors. Sadly, the miner Bill Quant has passed away, making this material a memorial to his rockhounding legacy and contribution to Oregon lapidary history.
WHAT MAKES IT SPECIAL
This flatrate comes directly from the Bill Quant collection, mined by Bill himself in the Ochoco Mountains. With both sunset colorations and oolitic patterning present, this sorted box represents some of the finest Ochoco Sunset material available.
PERFECT FOR
• Slabbing and cabochon cutting
• Oregon material collectors
• Ochoco Mountains enthusiasts
