Hi all. Susan sent me some rocks to slab up for her and make some cabs from. So far, I slabbed a chunk of Graveyard Plume Agate and an agate she collected from New Mexico Graveyard Plume New Mexico agate The local agate had fractures all the way through and fortunately it waited until I picked it up before it broke apart. Cabs soon to follow.

Bummer about that red agate. I was delighted when I found it, 'cuz it looked so solid. Are any of those pieces gonna yield cabs or are we gonna have to throw them in the tumbler? Can't wait to see the Botswana and the Queensland agate slabbed up...and those 2 banded NM rocks... and, and... damn, I forgot what else I sent you. But MOST OF ALL - I wanna see more polished Prudent Man!!! I know, I know...PATIENCE, GRASSHOPPA. S

That's some fine material! NMR, you don't like the red agate?... looks good to me. Heck, you could always paint a few orbs on it and sell it at vastly inflated prices as ocean jasper ;D.

Great looking Plume. Man, that stuff looks ALIVE, almost like coral or something. Can't wait to see what you work up w/ those winners.
