Hi, Michael–
Is that a chrysocolla color, or a navy blue like azurite, or what? Does it
match the dyed agates in color? I see a lot of agates with a lapis lazuli
color, which I suspect to be the dyed ones.

Doug – the blue agate I personally have collected is a very pale, Paul Newman's
eyes, blue. It is a paler shade of blue than any kyanite specimen I've seen.
As far as I know, any *deep* blue color in agate is the result of dyeing.
Hi, Michael–
Now you mention it, I have seen the paler blues now and then, but the lapis
blue that seems likely a dye appears more common in the shops.
