Howdy Tommy, You now, I've seen that first material before at Snyders but never seen it labeled. No clue there. The second material appears to be pastelite. Lots of that comes out of Burro Creek but it occurs at Hector Hills, and here in Texas too. Third material looks to grade from red to black plume on my monitor and looks to be Canadian River Plume from north Texas. Canadian River material tends to have plumes running in kind of bands where colors often grade into one another. Basic color for plume bands is usually red, black, and gold but I've seen pieces with just one color too......Mel

The third one is lighter red to darker red - the photos make it look black.
