This isn't bruneau. Bruneau has orbs and is a porcelain jasper.

Disaster Peak looks like a winner. Is this stuff particularly valuable?

Tim nailed it - Definitely disaster peak. Not particularly valuable sorry.

Yes, definitely Disaster Peak. Cabs well and they sell well, but doesn't take a hard polish. Used to be more of it around, but haven't seen much in the shops around here for several years, so don't know if any working claims are still active over that way. Shops used to sell the rough at $3-6 per pound, but that was before fuel and shipping prices started pushing up prices about 10 years ago. Colors are generally as in your piece, with occasional pieces with some blue. You've got some nice patterns there.

I got a very good deal and am happy with it. This is all going to be slabbed by my club, El Cajon Valley Gem & Mineral Society to be sold at our show in November. Come on down if you want a piece.
