Treasures of Lower Silesia – Agates from Różana
Różana is one of the most important sites in Polish mineralogy. These agates formed within gas bubbles in cooling melaphyric lava, which gives them their characteristic, rounded, almond-shaped form. Each specimen is unique—from its raw, often unassuming outer shell to the intricate layers of chalcedony with varying color saturation. The polished surface of this specimen allows one to fully appreciate nature’s precision and the intricate layering typical of Polish silicates.
