I have a few slabs that I need help identifying. The first 2 pictures are of a slab that I was told came from a find near the Burro Creek Az. area. Thanks in advance for any help. 1 1a 2 2a 3 Corpolite? 3a Corpolite? 4 4a

The first two are Lizard Stone, it was cut parallel with the layers, looks good that way. It is collected about half way from the BC road in and Wikieup.

Thanks Tim, Cabbing a piece to see if it takes as nice a shine as I think it will. Kinda reminds me of a porcelain jasper.
