Those are incredible. I kept looking and looking and coud not figure out which one I liked best. That coyamito looks flawless. The agates have a mirror like finish. A treat to look at Thanks Bill

Carlos, those are awesome. That one you found in the gravel pit is outstanding. As is that green "egg"! Great set! Paul

Carlos, Those are great! Do you have a special way you are tumbling the hematite infused rocks? Mine always undercut on me. Scot

Thanks for the comments. I don't take any special precautions for the hematite Scot. I have a few pieces of pure hematite (from Michigan) in a barrel right now and they delaminated along visible grain lines during the coarse tumble. It could be that the hematite in this jasper is less crystallized.

Wow! Another awesome batch Carlos! Hard to even pick favorites but I love that little purple Coyamito, the poppies and that awesome Zapata fortification agate.....Mel
