We are very glad to present a new publication about agates from Ploczki Gorne. It was published a few days ago in cooperation with The Spirifer Geological Society and the Borough and Town of Lwowek Slaski. This is the first such publication on the market. It consists of descriptive part (about 50 pages) where you can find descriptions of Ploczki agates fields, geology of Sudety Mts.,  agates` come origin, their clacifications,  magmatism and vulcanism etc. and the second part - 140 pages of photographies of the most beautiful agates choosen among a few best polish collections ( over 300 agates are illustrated). At the moment there is only Polish version of the book, but we are planning to publish also English and German version. As for now you can download the album from our site in low and high resolution for free -  text is in polish language but the photographs is an international language. The album is published basing on creative commons licence.

One of the authors - Tomasz Praszkier is from SpiriferMinerals.com team.
