Anybody heard of this stuff before? I picked up 15 pounds from Arrowhead Lapidary. They're having an inventory reduction sale now on rough, some really good prices. Anyway, the colors in this agate are crazy! Unfortunately what I cut so far has been cracked all over the place. Maybe I'll still be able to get a fairly solid slab somewhere in there. Pics (not color adjusted):

Nice looking material, hope you get some good slabs out of it. And, thanks for the heads up on the sale! Just ordered 25 lbs of leopard skin jasper.

Thats to bad it has so many fractues. Very nice coloring. You can always just polish up the face and leave it as is.
