That cab is awesome. Great job. Never knew you could find such hunks of emerald. What is the matrix? Obviously, it shined up pretty nice.

Thanks it was a pain to cab the Emerald was one hardness and there was the black that was softer and the grey was even softer . But I think it turn out OK. I am not sure what the matrix stone is? Keith
