Hey Randy! Wow, It is! Yeah!!!!! Who wouldda thunk that big hunka junk would look so cool. You did an awesome job on it too Randy. Hmmmm.... I wonder now if it is Bronzite. So what do you think would look better? Silver or gold wire?
Is anybody familiar with Bronzite and can give an opinion?

I have cut a little bronzite, and I believe this to be just that. I see some spots that look to be a little chatoyant and fiberous, which is just how the piece I had was.

Yep, the chatoyancy covers the entire stone but the pics doesn't show it too well. I'm gonna do a couple more cabs and add them to my "to be wrapped" stash. This stuff will look great in gold.

Are you saying it has chatoyancy?

Sounds like you let a good one slip by Jo! Is it a local find?
Great cab Randy, I really like that shape.

Wow, that's great, thanks everybody for helping figure this out. Randy, see if you can take a video of it when you wrap it. Gotta get it in good light when you do.
