WOW! Those pieces are awesome and the perfectly framed vugs are icing on the cake! Your anniversary plume is the best plume I have ever worked!!!
Hmmmmm that reminds me.... when I ordered that awesome box of goodies from you there was a New Years Agate in there. I KNOW EXACTLY WHAT I'M GOING TO START WORKING ON TODAY!!!!!!

Thanks everyone. Bob, The slices shown are 1 1/2 x 3 1/2 inches. Once in a while a big piece comes out but it is not the norm. Don, the mine is just a hole that I started when I found the seam. It has grown though with some pretty spectacular pieces coming out. There is a little float in the area but most is not plume. Seems like it is very localized.

What an amazing find Rodney and Jamie. Do you think the hole will keep producing or do you think it's a shallow vein? It is gorgeous material...and I think it would be a great seller if there is enough to mine. steve

Agree with Steve, this material would make a good seller.
If you are going to QS you should bring some for trade, I sure you could get very good deals.

This stuff is amazing. Nice plumes, hopefully it is a viable deposit to mine. Would be interested in some rough or a slab or two when/if it is.
