This material was found about 6 miles north of Sheep's Bridge in AZ....not in the usual Sagenite area that has been hounded for years

You got some good slabs out of it . Looks like a rhyolite matrix , does this come as a thunderegg , or ?

Amazing color in those! I'd be interested in purchasing a slab too if they're available.

Love anything that is purple. Cut some of these this summer, and they turned out great!
