The hematite I just got from RosebudMN. I am very pleased with the pieces she sent me. I am hoping to have a couple of the larger ones slabbed by a friend of mine and break some of the smaller ones up for tumbling. Tami

Shorty, that would definitely be a heck of a deal!
My latest best buy would have to be the budstone and sodalite I just got from Cal!
