A lot of variety. Must be fun collecting. I think AZ material generally is not as cabber friendly as some of the Mexican and NW US stuff because of voids, soft spots, crystals, or smaller seams. But, a lot of these slices seem like they have at least one good small cab in them. There also seems to be potential to polish a few of those slices as is. ... and I guess the price was sure right.

deb193relux yes you may be right but what we have found is unlike most other material found else where. Because of what you mention about the voids I have made a very generous offer in the sell and trade area. Unless you have seen my rocks you could not judge them because there is only a couple of people know where they come from. The site is small and difficult to get to and if known would be gone in a day. So people will have to share through me or stumble around the hills like we have. Price? What is the price if you include $20K for a rig, $40 in gas everytime you go out, $80.17 for 5 gallons of rocksaw oil, $160 for a diamond blade every two years and most times searchasing for FREE rock you come back with junk or nothing. The price is right because its so damn much fun.

Thanks Fossilman. Still not sure about posting again. There still might be some payback left in me for debby's other post.
