Was Digging through some stuff. Here's some crap to look at. Can name some, others no clue. Help Identify if you know. Ochoco Green moss agate. OG Green Moss.  Shotgun Plume  Amy Sage   Oregon Sunset Jasp agate (Richardson rock ranch)  Sheep Creek Plume  Papa Bob T-egg  Unknown T-egg (Oregon material)  Imperial jasper  Unknown Moss  Unknown Bacon Strip (maybe arizona material?)  Nyssa Plume  Stinking water Plume  Vistaite  OG Maury Moss (the good stuff)  Royal eyes cabenite  Goose ridge Plume (one of my discoveries). Material is scarce. Have to hit location after a heavy rain or snow season to turn up new material. But produces an assortment of a variety of different plumes. Rockoonz has actually been to the spot with me.  |

Some great stuff there and love the Imperial, but the Goose Ridge really jumps out at me. So is that goose crap?

Funny enough, it’s actually very near another well know agate deposit. However.. this stuff doesn’t have any distinct deposit, it just seems to be a random assortment that just comes out of the ground, mostly on one hillside in a specific area. I’ve found purple moss agate, etc.. in this spot. Heres what it looks like worked.  |

This is called Sonora Plume unless it was a bad id. I see the resemblance to yours, though- which is also nice.

Very nice. I like the plumey material a lot. That is some very good amethyst sage. Thanks for sharing.

So I wanted to say the first moss was unbelievable, and then the sheep creek (which looks like cork!) was way cool,
but by the time I got to the Vistaite I gave up - you win !

Smells like someone is searching for material for the cab contest! Can't wait to see your entry!

It’s been in the negatives here and a foot of snow on the ground. Can’t get to what I want. Need to use my slab saw and I’m pretty sure the oil is frozen solid. |
