These are some slabs I got at Quartzsite a few years ago, and got tired of them sitting in a box doing nothing while I was more interested in finding local stuff. I just hammered them up, filled a 3# barrel too full, ran a few weeks in coarse, couple weeks in fine, and a few days in soapy water. They're actually more polished than this LED flash shows. The better ones will get shaped more and repolished. Closeups are just the bigger brighter ones; pics of the darker colors didn't come out.
Green moss agate, brown and red moss, some kind of softer green and pink rock, crazy lace, some jasper looking like mookite, and a picture jasper (lost the location sticker).
They mostly had fractures and pits in all the wrong places as slabs. Now I can actually do something with them.
The biggest picture jasper is just over 3" long. I made these pics a more reasonable size than my last post.

Mook looking stuff, thick slab with fun crystal vugs that don't show well here:
Hope they're fun to look at :-)
