hi sooflauschig, if you want to find agates and stuff like that... you have to be on the west side of the Rhine and beneath the point where it flows into the Netherlands, all the agates are coming from the Idar Oberstein region, and where washed downstream in rivers eons ago.... in fact it was river the Niers, now a small stream but it was huge in that time.... 4 to 10 km wide... where i find the agates.... most of them sit at a depth of 10 to 30 meters in sand quarries and pulled up by the sucking machines, from there they go onto piles of stones till they are crushed for split ( broken stone for bedding on new roads....) left of the Rhine you will find more fossils from mammoth ancient horse and pot remains and stuff like that.... if you go rockhunting.... i wish you a good and happy hunting....!!
