Condor agate is a highly-prized gem and mineral specimen from the Mendoza Province of Argentina. Most specimens feature red, brown, and black banding, but colors can vary into blues, greens, and even white. A relatively new discovery, only known outside of Argentina since the early 1990s, Condor agate makes a wonderful addition to any mineral collection.
