Who needs agate when you can find that!

That stuff looks great. Way cool that you collected it too. It's been a long time since I have done one whole batch of the same kind of rock but it looks great in that dish that way. I have a good size chunk of this stuff from you in the lot-o right now so I am anxious to see how it comes out.

I'm not sure its technically unakite either. I've tumbled a "bunch" of it I've found as well. Always shines good and you can't beat red and green rocks. You got a nice batch there.

Unakite is composed of feldspar and epidote, right? The pink (feldspar, I think) is lighter colored in most of my rocks than rock that is sold as unakite from other locations. I'm not sure if that makes it different or if it's just a variation of the same thing. It doesn't really matter, I'm going to keep picking it up and polishing it.

Looks great. Unakite has always been a favorite of mine.
