Bought a couple of jars of these to tumble, don't know what they are.
They were kind of hard to tumble because they tend to fracture. Just a little on the soft side. They more blue there is the tougher the rock.
As you all can see I am kind of new to rock tumbling. Since I live in Key Largo, Fl there's not too much available in the way of rocks except for my local flea market lady.

OK, this is way local! Found it on the beach in our back yard. This is one side.

This is the other side! Guess I won't tumble this one. Do you all know what it is? Bet you can't guess! I'm just kidding!

These next ones all came from the mountain in Boomer NC. where we have a second home. Have not an idea what kind of rock grow up there. Some are pretty, some are so so. I just like to see what comes out when all is said and done. That's half the fun of it! Some I will wire wrap and make jewelry with.
