Misc Reds, Misc Pretties!, Gold Moss; and the Big Red Rock are all "bang up specimens"... I've got a thing for botry's though & stringers so I'm biased. Aside from the reds, they very much remind me of some Angel Wing agates with their fingerling-potato agate growth - especially the Gold Moss specimen. The Misc Red's even have some Mexican Cathedral agate esque bubbling; and look like a few specimens I've picked up in OH with botryoidal growth showing; kind of like some Savannah River Agate (Chert) agate pockets as far as bot-growth goes. Great bunch to have Cherry picked!

Very nice rough! Is it self-collected? If so, you had a great spot. I like the ones with a lot of clear agate in them. Garry

Thanks again everyone! I finally got my saw cutting right, so I should be able to cut these up now. ;D ibexian, I like rocks that show how they formed too! Botrys are cool, but I'm partial to the 'wormy' looking ones. Garry, Yep! Self collected... We were all over WWR the 3 days we hunted there. Soooo many acres to cover, so little time! Later, jeri
