Nice! Any IDs? Some looks like plume agate, some like fancy jasper. You got a great shine. Local rocks rule! Great job.

Excellent batch and a great shine too. I really like the Pet wood and those Montana looking agates with the dendrites....Mel

That Souris agate & Souris pet wood are beautiful - I tumbled a piece of the pet-wood - looks just like a sanded piece of wood - gave it to my dad as a worry stone - I'd have loved to drill it but it was too thick
beautiful batch

There you go all labeled up. They just get the Estevan Agate / Jasper name because thats where I found them. These were all found in the same area within a couple hundred yards of each other.

You are so very lucky to have such beautiful stones to find! They sure turned out great and so many look like Montana agates! They are so beautiful! Fran

Sas; You have a really nice selection of local material at your disposal up there, they look montana like and some almost look like morrisonite, I love the goldish pet wood, I think #6 down of the solos? Nice work! Amber
