Here's a pix of some of the cabs cut from Arizona Shattuckite. Earlier this year way, way back in January at the last Quartzsite Pow-Wow, Christopher and I did a little trade. Since I had the camera out, took a few pixs of some Cactus Jasper from Mexico. I'm now starting to re-consider and may actually go back to the Pow-Wow as a vendor next year. I've always enjoyed it personally but from business standpoint, it's a hard call. Sales over the years have been pretty inconsistent. Some years have been great and others have been pretty dismal.

Those are cool. I like the cactus jasper, never seen that before. If you do go as a vendor be sure and let us all know where you are going to be so we can stop by to say hello.

Are you sure those cabs were cut from the rough we traded? Here is a photo of the material from the same lot we traded from and here is a cab I cut from it Sure does look a lot different.
