A chunk of leopard skin jasper that I've had laying around for a couple years. It's in the saw right now. Pics of the slabs as soon as they're cleaned up. Here come the slabs. Sorry for the pic. Cloudy and windy outside. Bad lighting inside. Don

It's about a 10 pounder. Should get some nice slabs off of it, with crystal vugs.
Slabs from the latest victim are soaking in laundry detergent Pics in a little bit.

Just posted a pic of the slabs.
I can see the face. Looks like a dogs nose and mouth. Maybe the Halloween devil dog ??

You are just finding all kinds of goodies. Makes me want to go home and clean up my rock piles. Almost, anyway.

Was gonna tell you how cool those slabs are Don, but the thunder and lightning that accompanied your ghoulish laughter scared me too much. Jo
