I have two MFRB's, about 25 lbs. each of tumbling rough for sale. About a third of each box is snowflake obsidian and the other two thirds is agate nodules that have dendrites inside them. There is a variety of colors in the agate and much of it is semi transparent under the rind. This is all southern Utah material and I'd rate the agate as above average material. The obsidian is in a separate bag under the agate and photos show wet and also dry.
$50 per box and the first two people to call dibs in this thread will get the goodies. Thanks

Since I missed out on the Sweetwater agate I call dibs on both. If I can only get one I'll take the top box.

So I was told sweet water agates from Wyoming fluorescence green from black light, so I opened one box and checked it out and have some that glow green and even some that glow orange. Not sure what kind of agate glows orange, do you know what was in the box? Anyway it really rocks. Pun intended Thanks

Pun intended Thanks There's some Sweetwater in the boxes I picked up in Wyoming last year and most of it that I've tested does glow green. I've seen a lot of other random agate that glows orange and if they have crust on them composed of calcite compounds they often glow orange from that too. Most of the stuff in your boxes came from southern Utah.

On the sweetwater agates ..the green fluorescence is from uranium that they mine in that area.. orange is possibly from manganese...I have found the pet wood glows orange and also the cedar rim agate dose the same..
