It was sunny and good lighting today, so I got further than I have on some other days, lately: Not 100% sure on the ID, but I think it's rhodonite and bustamite (with the usual manganese oxide): DSC_1479_More Rhodonite_bustamite by Stephan Telm, on Flickr One of my faves from today. Remade from an old cab that was just a bit too freeform. I'm not sure I can let go of this one: DSC_1450_Bloodstone by Stephan Telm, on Flickr From a slablet found at the bottom of a box. Not sure I can let go of this one, either: DSC_1446_Crazy Lace Agate by Stephan Telm, on Flickr From a Self collected piece: DSC_1442_Black Butte jasp-agate by Stephan Telm, on Flickr From a piece of slab trim found at the bottom of a box: DSC_1439_Rhodonite_bustamite by Stephan Telm, on Flickr And a cab from the Sheep Creek slab/pieces shown yesterday (cab also shown in that post): DSC_1471_Sheep Creek agate freeform cabochon by Stephan Telm, on Flickr

Very good looking cabs! My favorites are the bloodstone and the crazy lace, but those rhodonite/bustamite cabs are pretty interesting, too.

I like them all! The Black Butte piece is my favorite though. Striking red!
