Pricing of geodes depends upon size, shape, damage, and what is inside. Eg. many tons of amethyst geodes are mined in Uruguay and Brazil; if the amethyst crystals are deep purple, large, and lustrous, the price goes up. Spectacularly large, beautifully formed, spangled with contrasting white calcite crystals, price goes up.
Prices range from $5-10 per pound; 2 meter tall monsters can go for five figures, and prices into the low six figures have been asked. Shipping is extra, but anybody with a house big enough to show off one of these things wouldn't have to fret much about that.
how big can geodes be
The igneous geodes are classified as intrusive and the sedimentary geodes are classified as chemical based on properties.
Yes, geodes can be found in any state.
Geodes are usally found in dry areas such as deserts.
Yeah calcite is in geodes. you can find some in stores or you can go on the internet and there is proof that there is calcite in geodes if you go to google.com and go to images and type in calcite in geodes ask wiki answers for more info :)!!!!
Geodes and caves are both hollow objects made of stone.
Crystal formation in geodes is dependent on mineral rich water. So the is "yes".
there are propably geodes in sumerset because you can find them anywhere but dont count on this answer
Of course.
== == It depends on what's inside. Large amethyst geodes can go for thousands. Baseball sized geodes with non-spectacular quartz or calcite crystals can be purchased for $4-$12. Geodes with uncommon minerals that are sold on mineral auction sites range in price from $30-$500. Golf ball sized geodes, uncracked, are sold for about $2 at shows.

Although geodes are not traded as a commodity is traded, dealers and collectors are interested in purchasing good specimens.
