The drop is live. Every piece is right here. When they're gone, they're gone.

Red Fox Agate is one of the most requested minerals I get asked about, and one of the hardest to get my hands on. First found in 1997 in Las Plumas, Chubut, in Patagonia, Argentina, it was born 30 to 50 million years ago in volcanic geodes: a bubbly blood-red hematite heart wrapped in stormy chalcedony. Hit it with UV and it glows green (trace uranium, totally safe, just showing off).

The locality went dry more than 10 years ago, so every piece is already out there somewhere. When these are gone, they're gone.

Each one is hand-picked and comes on a custom stand with its locality label.
