Breaking this up because it's easier to keep straight for me. ![:)](//storage.proboards.com/forum/images/smiley/smiley.png) First one. I want to guess at Rhodonite, but I might be wrong. #1 Rhodonite - Canada Possibly = thank you Rockoonz![](https://res.cloudinary.com/dosm6sdda/image/upload/v1721852278/kQv7L-CjQlG7hPOj-5oWtQ_lbmyfa.jpg) #2 - No guess - it's kind of fractured looking but I wanted to know in case I run into more like this. Second image is same piece backlit.

ummmmm....I can't say what it is, other than a "Seam" Amethyst of some kind...but I don't think that's Aztec Lace.

When I Google Aztec lace my results show purple lace agates but not with amethyst bands… looks a lot more like something I would call amethyst lace. May I request more pics? The brecciated pieces didn’t seem to move too far, so the other rock is most likely the same matrix that would be found on non-brecciated pieces. Might help narrow down the location!
Edit: btw, the pics I see of Durango amethyst lace have a similar looking matrix and they almost always have healed faults, so that would be my first guess.

That looks a bit like a slab I got that was called Amethyst Lace Agate.

#1 Might be rhodonite from a spot in Canada
#2 The pink/orange looks like Durango Amethyst lace

Looks like rhodonite and something, for sure.
