Two Pound Group of 0.4-0.5" Diameter Mini Mexican Trancas Geodes from Chihuahua, Mexico (Approximately 130-170 geodes)
Description
Each geode will measure roughly 0.4-0.5 inch in diameter with a total of 130-170 geodes typically in two pounds.  Please note that some geodes may be as small as 0.25" and others between 0.5-0.6 inch, as well.
Two pound group of 0.4-0.5" diameter miniature-sized Mexican Trancas geodes!  Each group will contain at least two pounds of 0.4-0.5" diameter geodes, which works out to between 65-85 geodes per pound (these are tiny geodes!).  The Trancas geodes that are hollow typically contain clear quartz or chalcedony, and some have quartz scepters (typical interiors are shown at left - not included with your purchase)  A sample lot of geodes is shown.  Approximately 80-85% of these geodes fluoresce bright green under shortwave ultraviolet light.  These geodes are sold "mine run", meaning we cannot guarantee a percentage hollow because of the small size (this is the smallest these geodes come).  It is very difficult to sort the geodes when they get this small, but a general percent of hollow for these ranges from 40-60% hollow based on our experience and customer feedback but with the smallest size, the percent hollow may be less with some orders.  Given the size, some of these would be ideal for jewelry, dollhouse displays, and just something to have fun breaking open!  Free USPS Priority mail shipping in the United States!  Opening instructions and an information card about the geodes will be included in every box.  Again, due to the small size, we cannot guarantee a percent hollow with these groups.

We ship either Priority Mail International (over 4 pounds or 1.8 kilos) or First Class Mail International (under 4 pounds or 1.8 kilos) with tracking (in most cases). We will also ship Global Express Mail or Fedex Express if you would prefer an expedited service with full tracking. Please note buyer will be responsible for any customs duty fees upon delivery.
Returns
Although we strive to provide the most accurate descriptions and representative photographs of our specimens and other products, we understand that buying online does not always trump having the item in person. Thus, we offer a full purchase price refund (minus shipping costs) within 30 days (USA buyers) or 45 days (International buyers), no questions asked.  If you are returning an item purchased with free shipping (shipping is included in the purchase price), we will refund the full purchase price minus the USPS retail counter or Fedex rate based on the weight of the package (if a full return) or what the weight would have been to ship the item returned (if a partial return).
Additional Information
We will combine shipping for multiple purchases - if you are purchasing multiple items and you are receiving a very high shipping cost estimate, please note it is likely incorrect although we do have a shipping limit equal to the cost of a USPS Medium flat rate box (unless otherwise stated) regardless of quantity ordered.  After committing to purchase the items, please request a revised invoice with the correct shipping cost, OR we will refund the difference to you through Paypal if you go ahead and pay (preferred to avoid shipping delays).  If you have any questions after reading our terms above, please contact us before making any purchases.  Please visit our other listings and thank you for your business!
