You must be out a lot! I like the pink in the 16th pic and the few before that. Is it pinker in person?

Your saw must stay pretty busy! I don't do as much cutting as I would like. Harder stones like the chalcedonies I generally wait to go down to the club shop to cut on oil saws. At home, I cut softer stones with the tile saw, but it is heavy and awkward to carry so I only set it up occasionally. |

The pink chalcedonies vary a lot in intensity running from a faint pink to a darker pink, or pinkish purple.
There is a small mountain in Southern California that has a lot of pink chalcedony.
And for pinks, I find pink orthoclase, rhyolites and opal.
