Sweet stuff Brian! That yellow and blue just BLUE me away!
I think Mel is probably at the ranch. When he gets back, he can tell you what it iis and what creek it came out of :-)

I don't know what they are, but I call them beautiful. That first one is stunning! Daniel

That last one almost has flint-like patterns.

I'm no help as usual but they are very very purdy.

Shannon that's what I was thinking too on the last one, maybe it's a flint. Thanks for the comments folks!

Brain: *L* Man you do post some tough ones to ID! I'm pretty clueless on number one though it slightly resembles some of the Vogesite and autumn jasper I got off Kimmie. The sagenite could come from so many places but I'm thinking it's probably Mexican material out of Chihuahua but not the Colonia Enriques stuff which has a light soft yellow shell. Roostertail is a good bet on the beautiful mossy piece and I'd say the last is Flint Ridge Flint if I had to guess....Mel

Hi there. What do I know but the last one looks like rainbow Obsidian to me. My rough chunk of rainbow has those lines through it as well.

LOL Tami! I have a few of those myself.
Brian - could the last one be some of that Polish Flint I've been seeing around? Really beautiful pattern lines in shades of greys and whites.... I've not seen any rough with exterior rind attached - it's all been slabs. Where did you get it?

The first 2 photos appears to be Exotica Jasper from Sonora, Mexico.At rock shows I have also seen it called Sci-Fi jasper and Porcelain Jasper.I agree that the last one looks to be a flint of some kind.
