I have some extra slabs to sell. Both parcels include Sonoran Cactus Jasper slabs from Mexico and Serpentine from Nevada. Sometimes the cactus jasper is sold as pistaccio chrysocolla and the serpentine looks awfully similar to seraphinite yet is harder. There are some fractures in the larger pieces of jasper. Each parcel is over one pound of material and most of the slabs are .25" thick. Both of these are easy to cut and produce some nice cabs or they can be carved. See the examples at the bottom. The slabs in the pictures are wet. Parcel #1 Cactus Jasper - 182 grams + Serpentine 352.8 grams The smallest piece of jasper is 1"x2.25" and the largest piece of serpentine is 2.5"x6.75" $20 includes sfrb priority mail for shipping. Parcel #2 Cactus Jasper - 198.8 grams + Serpentine 257.6 grams The smallest piece of jasper is 15.2"x2.25" and the largest piece of serpentine is 2.25"x6.25" $18 includes sfrb priority mail for shipping. Some finished examples.

Your Serpentine looks a lot like Russian Seraphinite
Nice batches!

The "serpentine" looks like actinolite. Same thing chemically, but larger crystals.
