Those first little geodes are called " Ochos" and are from Brazil. Top second pic may be an edge piece of Rivera Plume from Mexico or it could be Wyoming Lysite Agate. Bottom pic#2 kind of has a Sowbelly Agate look to it but may be a Mexican lace variant. Last pic appears to be Aussie Tigeriron and the dendritic piece above could be one of several things, maybe a Montana,, a Copco an Indian whiteskin or an Indian Blackskin which all overlap somewhat as to how they look.....Mel

Thanks, just what I was looking for. I know it's hard to id from pics so I'll look into each of the stones you mentioned and try to find a good fit

Thanks. The one in the last pic above the quarter is being a pain. Wrapped it several times and with majority of the pattern on the edges wrapping is hiding too much. Going to drill a hole and put a bail on it. Picked up another slab in this haul but it has a matte finish on it. Hoping to shine it up a bit and wrap it.
