Here's a few slabs I picked up this past weekend at the Flagg show. Best part.. I didn't even have to leave our booth to buy them Found them all digging through my partner's slab bins. I'd make a sale and then pretty much hand my cash over to lonetreestudios who had a gazillion great slabs at rock bottom prices!! Starburst and some sorta plume Palm Stone Canyon Coral Poppies Biggs Owyhee and Rocky Butte Assorted.. top right is Paul Bunyon is all I know Imperial Jasper Flame Agate Morrisonite Thanks a bunch for looking!

Wowser Brian, what fine slabs! A few Id's for ya. The plume in the top pic is Wingate which does not always have a lot of red in it. The upper right example with your flame actually looks like some fine Bird of Paradise Plume, probably the nicest I've ever seen. Bird of Paradise is found right near the Confetti Agate deposit (pic #8 upper left) and they actually grade into each other, hence the similar pink area in the center of your BOP slab. Still can't get over that BOP find. That must be old old stock to be that awesome. Lower left in pic#8 looks to be Big Diggins stuff which often shows that white base sagenite type inclusion...Mel

Thanks guys and I appreciate the IDs Mel! I wouldn't have guessed Wingate but now I'm seeing it. I got another BOP slab from Rodney that's more the traditional clear with yellow and red plumes, but forgot to take a picture.

Rocks are dangerous. To be safe, give them all to me.

quite the nice haul... hopefully your table/space is paid for in advance, because at this rate you'll have less $$ when you leave their than you had when you arrived!!!
