This stuff is such a pain to cab...fractures, multiple hardnesses, pits, undercuts like a mother... This cab started out 2x the size it ended up because of having to work out flaws and it's still not perfect...Still, the color is nice. you really have to pick and choose a good spot on the slab to get anything descent out of it. This material is known to this forum as "pipeline canyon" jasper from southern utah. ![](http://farm7.staticflickr.com/6104/7022919181_6c25a2b17c_c.jpg)
