Very nice slabs and love the reds in 'em, vegasjames! What is the 4th slab that looks kinda like myrickite? |

The last four photos almost resembles "Morgan Hill" and surrounding areas jasper.

is this yellow/orange quartz?? or moss agate?? No Idea. The club was out looking for quartz crystals when I backed over a rock and cut my drive shaft in half. I got towed by a member out to the blacktop and while waiting for the tow truck I collected a bunch of this from an outcropping along the side of the road across from where I was waiting. Been sitting outside for a month so I finally decided to cut it. |

That was the angle I was angling for on my query, myrickite. If it is quartz crystally and red, it COULD be mercury based red. I which case I want some. Part of my quest is to have sphere representing many different elements...

Nice variety of color. I see a little of the would-be moss agate around the top of the first picture. I'm not the person to assess since I only know what moss agate looks like from the internet(who knows maybe I do have some but I'm just not educated enough to be sure), but the picture just looks like a fine quartz nodule. Good luck with the material.
