I got these slab scraps at a rock show. They are probably too thin to do anything with but I wouldn't know for sure. Any help on IDs is appreciated. #1 #2 #3 #4 is Dino Bone...right? #5 #6 #7

#2 & #3 is opalite. I have some just like it from Australia.
#4 is Dino Bone. You are correct.
#5 is Rainforest Jasper
#6 is Mugglestone (I think)
#7 is OJ

I agree with Akansan except for #6 which I'd say is Aussie Tiger-Iron ( tiger-eye, jasper and hematite mix).....Mel

Your 'scraps' look to be about the standard (is there a standard?) 3/16", which is the usually thickness to make cabs. Most of these pieces are close to cab size now. That is nice dino bone. You did good at the show. Woody
