Epic cabs, broseph82. Especially the ones from MS and KY. The colors are stunning, with a gorgeous shine. The botryoidal coral's pretty awesome, too. And the jasper... that's neat as hell. They're not even cabs. Just rocks I've been tumbling. The miss agate I posted has nice banding on the back and side. Just couldn't get them in the photo just right. |

Looked like cabs at first. Anyone would pay a pretty penny for the first one. I would make you an offer, if I had a job.

All of them look great Jimi. yes, plates like you have in the photo. Most flat on top and bottom, faces parallel to each other. But circumference broken rough in most cases. This is cool, and with color blobs that I was finding/looking for. And the pink one. Classic colored quartzite that I find chips in native camps in TVA and other N. Georgia mountain lakes when they are low water level. The arrowheads get picked up made out of that colored quartzite because they stand out on the ground and easy to see. Hard to find them anymore. Also find them on the Chattahoochee River(flows down an old fault(Brevard fault)) that exposed a lot of hot quartzite. But the Alabama stuff much more variable and easy to pick up due to quantity. Pumped about the quartzite Jimi, thanks for putting me on it. Not sure what to say about the hot dog rock...  |

No kidding, we southerners have a knack for arguing over petty matters.
