Those large oval circles are markings traced on the slab to make cabachons. The smaller circles are the agatized Turritella sea shell that make up the turritella agate fossil rock

how long has the tape been on this piece? can you show a picture with the tape removed? I'm very interested, but don't want to have tape marks on the piece after the tape is removed. thank you

Yes, someone marked it out for cabachons, but its just pencil, and would come off. It is rock after all, so tape adhesive could be removed easily as well.
