Wow, Beautiful creek and awesome finds. Love the coral! I walked our creek looking for dead blackbuck yesterday to see if our cougar is back. All I saw was dang ole flint and a water snake bigger than my arm. You got some pretty rocks in your creek....Mel

Ooooh that last one is to die for! How do you know what angle you make your cut? I know that I'd blow it completely!

That last one is awesome! Make a great 'eye' cab. Perfect cut. From the pictures I couldn't see anything to clue me into what would be on the inside. You've got the lucky touch for sure.
How hard is that crinoid piece? All of out crinoid matrix here in Tennessee is really soft and crumbles easily. Always wanted a solid piece to slab and polish for a display.

I totally lucked up with the cut 😂 It was to small for the big saw and almost to big for the little Saw so I just cut it in half. It's really hard So had to go slow. I'll cut on it more tomorrow.

How hard is that crinoid piece? All of out crinoid matrix here in Tennessee is really soft and crumbles easily. Always wanted a solid piece to slab and polish for a display. It seems pretty solid. I'll slice it tomorrow and post a pic here. I have several big ones. I'll send you a few slabs if they come out solid and you like them.

I LOVE that last one! The color is kinda like apatite. Very nice pattern, too. Great cut!!
EDIT- Looks like we posted at the same time. I was referring to the next to last one.

Oh yea, the pretty rocks ! Checking out the scenery ! Y'all turned green way faster than Atlanta. Do a lot of people collect on that creek ? In S Alabama they ride ATV's on such flat creeks, not sure if Mississippi allows such. Impresive agates for us south folks. Coral is off the chart, great eye for the pretties Melissa. Looks like a good creek for the shallow water Devil, I offer limo service MrMike
