Howdy folks, Haven't sorted these yet but here is a mass shot of my UV-10 batch I took out this morning. Mostly Hornitos Jasper from my lost box. I'll post some closer shots after I sort....Mel ![](http://i23.photobucket.com/albums/b377/sabre52/favorite%20tumbles/DSCN7447_zps290c4503.jpg) Small orb poppy vein and a couple primrose: ![](http://i23.photobucket.com/albums/b377/sabre52/favorite%20tumbles/DSCN7449_zpse9bef78b.jpg) Brecciated Hornitos: ![](http://i23.photobucket.com/albums/b377/sabre52/favorite%20tumbles/DSCN7448_zpseb443fe8.jpg) Strawberry vein: ![](http://i23.photobucket.com/albums/b377/sabre52/favorite%20tumbles/DSCN7450_zps821ac968.jpg) Firefly. This is much nicer in person as it has fantastic metallic flecks and silvery hematite that does not show in pic; ![](http://i23.photobucket.com/albums/b377/sabre52/favorite%20tumbles/DSCN7452_zps3e9227b6.jpg) Cosmos Jasper vein: ![](http://i23.photobucket.com/albums/b377/sabre52/favorite%20tumbles/DSCN7451_zpsdef52f21.jpg)

Super stuff, great shape and shine! Is the primrose the red stones with the white donuts scattered over them?

Rollingstone, Yep, the Primrose is almost all red material with various orby patterns and is found in nodules and lenses while all the other types are primarily vein type material. Had a whole hillside full of nodules of primrose in matrix on our old ranch, but really hard rock mining with heavy sledges to remove any. The hammering tended to fracture it badly, so most of what I have is weathered out float material....Mel
