WHAT TO CUT
Blue Tide seam agate is one of the newest finds in Garut, West Java, Indonesia. the miners discovered it surrounding the pit where they were excavating some petrified wood. though they call it agate, it’s still up for discussion about what this stone is. the white portion is soft calcite, but I’m not certain what the blue plume is — until it can be further tested.
