I headed off to Birdlings Flat just south of Christchurch to go and find some agates. I was there for about 3 hours and we found about a hundred agates between the 3 of us.
I also used my rock saw to cut a number of them to see what is inside. One was really suprising

Used to come here with adear friend Kayla Russell, when we were younger. Her parents had a bach there. (Her stepdad would tumble stones too)Loved sitting there looking at all the pretty stones

Nice bonus content. I love rock hounding. I found my first blue chalcedony in September of this year. stoked to find more in the new year. I think you might be right about the wood. When you tilted it back you could see the rings. Great finds that day .Thanks for sharing.

Great video…as usual. I could not help thinking that the bucket must be a lot lighter than your normal haul 👏👏👏

I was just there a few days ago without knowing anything about the agates when driving back from Akaroa. I was blown away by the rounded rocks and beauty of the place. Wish I knew about the agates then.

I would've loved seeing the quality agate with the quartz through the center polished. Nice finds. You have such a good eye finding goodies among the rocks. 👍❤️

Father of two here who is looking at getting my young kids interested in rock hunting and rock cutting. Great for learning and bonding. You wouldn't happen to have a start point for me to look into, regarding rock cutting equipment? I see in a comment below you have a Redwood saw, any other thoughts or places for me to look at seeing i'm starting out and on a budget? Cheers!!

I was trying to figure out how I missed this video...then I realized it was a separate channel from the fossils. Haha

I can't tell for sure but the last cut rock kind of reminds me of a really mossy or plumy agate.

Went to birdlings flat today with the whanau and I accidentally filled a bucket with things hahha they were weighing down my pocket first time tumbling stones so I hope I found some goodies
