====Hunting for agates==== The Minnesota state gem, the [[Lake Superior agate]], can be found on the shores of Lake Superior, in the streams that run into it, and in gravel pits and road cuts. Duluth's Park Point is an excellent area for hunting, as shorelines and beaches are replenished each year because winter ice and storms push new material up on the shores. Books are available in Duluth to help amateur [[rock hound]]s learn more about agates and how to locate them.<ref>{{Cite web |title=Hunting for Agates Along Lake Superior | Northland's NewsCenter: News, Weather, Sports | NBC, CBS, MyNetworkTV, and the CW for Duluth MN / Superior WI | Outdoors |url=http://www.northlandsnewscenter.com/news/outdoors/Hunting-For-Agates-Along-Lake-Superior.html |url-status=dead |archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20140105061427/http://www.northlandsnewscenter.com/news/outdoors/Hunting-For-Agates-Along-Lake-Superior.html |archive-date=January 5, 2014 |access-date=January 5, 2014 |df=mdy-all}}</ref><ref>{{Cite web |title=Rock Hound Guide Agates, Rock Picking Lake Superior |url=http://www.superiortrails.com/rock-hound2.html |url-status=dead |archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20140328234444/http://www.superiortrails.com/rock-hound2.html |archive-date=March 28, 2014 |access-date=January 5, 2014}}</ref><ref>{{Cite web |title=Lake Superior agate - Digging into MN Minerals: Minnesota DNR |url=http://www.dnr.state.mn.us/education/geology/digging/agate.html |url-status=live |archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20131207100013/http://www.dnr.state.mn.us/education/geology/digging/agate.html |archive-date=December 7, 2013 |access-date=January 5, 2014}}</ref>
