Picked this up at the Madras show. The lines and the knot in the corner is why I'm leaning pet wood.

Jaspergate. Sorry NOT jaspergate, but Jasperlite. Kingsleys has some for sale.
3rd edit...jaspilite. I am going to the garden, not so complicated and no rocks either.

I don't think that is jaspelite. That is called snake skin jasper from Australia. I suspect it is really a rhyolite not a true jasper. Try a knife test. Should scratch if it is rhyolite.

I did a knife test and it didn't seem to scratch, but I still think you are right again RMF! youp50 seems the description is just like jaspelite except this seems more hard than jaspelite It looks like I stumbled on a nice piece from the pictures I found online.

Most of my haul came from vendors in the furthest back corners..kindred spirits maybe. I had my eyes peeled for baby Yoda in an ugly sweater, maybe that's what caught me off guard
