Hi, I bought a parcel of slabs from Drocknut. This is one my newest cabs I’ve made. Do you think it is Orthoclase, green jasper, frog skin jasper? I’m a bit stumped 🤔. It was quite hard material, I got a pretty nice shine, but not high gloss.

Thanks Khara, I think it turned out really nice. Chris1956, I think it is very interesting as well. Realrockhound, thanks for the ID. Did you collect it yourself? If so, do you remember where you were? I like to pass on the info when I can, because I’ll be gifting this set to a friend.

Don't remember exactly where in AZ it's found, though.
