Agates occur across mountain slopes, agricultural fields, and roadside exposures, making the area a distinctive source for Moroccan agate specimens. The locality has also produced azurite and malachite, including well-formed, blocky azurite crystals reaching nearly 3 cm in length. Its combination of colorful agate and collectible copper minerals gives Kerrouchene enduring appeal to mineral collectors.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Crystal Castle","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":49849139036315,"sku":null,"price":18.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0336\/3012\/6217\/files\/34fac6d8-6837-4689-ab1e-0feb9fd24f33.jpg?v=1792357819","url":"https:\/\/www.overtonfamilyjewels.com\/products\/auction-win-8654e444-1a23-4403-a1bf-5aed87a53876","provider":"OFJ's Crystal Castle","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
