This material was surprisingly stable!!! Woohoo! Photographing it though was extremely difficult Pictures taken indoors with Ott-Lite bulb and outdoors in natural sunlight!

Great cab, Krystee! I love the colors- is that lime color limonite? I have had some primavera which looks a lot like this. 49minerals sells it.

The neon green is wherryite but sometimes it can be conichalcite. It is hard to tell as they mix together. The base for this material is limonite and that is what makes it so red when you cut it."

Thanks Krystee I see I was way off base, but I knew I remembered limonite from something. So, limonite is red then?
