So at least I posted some of the pictures on my page to share their beauty.

There is no Best Minerals article on agate, chalcedony, opal etc, only articles on quartz from various countries and the agates and other quartz varieties are included with the general quartz article. There are many Quartz articles from various countries that have not been done, with only the images picked out but not yet placed in the article, only the links to them are in the articles. I have often lamented the fact that the mindat gallery is rather poverty stricken when it comes to forms of quartz like agate, chalcedony, petrified wood, opal etc. I am sure that when someone writes the article on quartz from Botswana that it will include some good images of Botswana agate.
