Vonson Blue Jade - Nephrite from Marin County Nephrite from Mariposa Feather River "Jade" - Grossular Garnet from the Feather River Happy Camp "Jade" - Idocrase Clear Creek Jadeite Stony Creek Jasper - This is the Stony Creek that runs from Black Butte Reservoir near Orland CA.

A huge thank you guys!!!!! This is great!
Take a look at the Index when it comes out, and if you have material not listed, or samples that would add to (or improve the look of) the material presented, please post and let me know. I know the Ca Index is not complete, but that's why they are designed to be reissued every so often.
Thanks much!
Lowell

Fossilman, The billowy one in photo 3 is the only one that I have found with this unique pattern. I did run across a dealer in Madras last year that had a slightly similar gray slab with the billows but it definitely didn't compare with my piece. I wish I could come across a seam of this material! Bob
