Original Message:   Shell versus Agate
Well, my analytical chemistry is pretty rusty, but wouldn't shell have a high concentration of calcium while agate would be based on silicone? There are simple chemistry tests for calcium, but they are destructive? If you're interested, I could ask my colleagues if they know of a non-destructive test.
