Lilangabi Agate – 114 mm | Goethite Needles & Floater

A world-class specimen from the Lebombo Mountains deposit. The face presents a vivid amber-to-tangerine palette with a prominent floater — an isolated banding form suspended independently within the chalcedony ground. Goethite needle inclusions are clearly visible within the drusy vug cavity, which is open and crystal-lined. A dense plume field occupies the upper margin, with strong chromatography expressed across the full band sequence. Bold fortification banding frames the interior throughout. Discovered and exclusively sourced by Elemental Treasure, and hand-lapped in house.

Each Lilangabi agate is a natural stone formed over millions of years. The Lilangabi deposit — 'flame' in SiSwati — was discovered in August 2025 by Kent Alcock, prospector and co-founder of Elemental Treasure, in a remote valley in the Lebombo Mountains. These specimens are cut and hand-lapped in house. Natural, with no treatments, dyes, or enhancements.
