Howdy folks, Well, I'm getting into the rock unpacking stage now and am getting into some specimens and boulders that maybe I haven't posted before. Sorry if any are repeats cause I have a bad memory. Thanks for looking....Mel Freshly unloaded boulder of Randsburg rhodonite. Actually much pinker than the pic which was taken in full sun. About 25# or so: A big rough boulder of north Cady Mountains seam agate. Maybe 35# or so and about a ten inch cubic hunk. Runs from plume to dense moss: A polished specimen of plumey moss agate from northern Mexico right near the Texas order. Very similar moss comes from Needle Peak: And finally, I like this stuff just cause it's Halloweeny and looks like ghosts in the rock. Palm bog with roots from near Yermo, CA. Polished and maybe 10# or so.
