I brought the slab bucket in yesterday and thawed it out, it was one solid chunk of ice. Some pretty nice stuff in there and lots of slabettes. Table 1 - All Mookaite except for a large 3/4" thick slab and long scepter chunk of obsidian from the monster piece that Dennis, Shannon, Chris and I dug up at Glass Buttes last year. Some real nice colors in this Mook Table 2 bottom right hand is 2 pieces of Labradorite that I forgot to get some closeups of, probably good because it is hard to get pics of the flash anyways. Sodalite Owyhee jasper Dino bone, has some metallic flakes showing, not sure what from Sagenite Something I am cutting for John Obsidian we collected from Glass Buttes this year same piece backlit Happy Holidays everyone!

The rocks are patient. thaw them out and wash them off and they'll love ya all the same, right Tony?! LOL Awesome group of slabs! We haven't seen a slab bucket in a while, and this more than makes up for it.
