Hello everyone! I recently picked up 5lb in two chunks of Labradorite from Madagascar. Here is just one of the cabs I am working on from one of the two chunks. This is more spectrolite with all of it's colors, The other chunk has alot more blue and yellow and greens in it. Nothing is polished yet... Waiting on my new 800 and 1200 bits to come in the mail This is what the cab was cut from the left corner... And the Cab Thanks for taking a look at this work in progress...

I have been busy slabbing and cabbing in my spare time.. It has been surprisingly nice out in Phoenix still despite it being half way thru May! No complaints here!
