Got the saw home from its winter slumber and got a few slabs cut.

Here's the group shot:

First is a couple slabs off a piece of dendritic opalite I got at a local show recently.

Next I believe is a blackskin agate.

Last is some kind of poppy I believe. From the color I'm thinking California material. Any help on the ID is appreciated.

*Added*:
I almost forgot about the sarape jasper I cut.a little disappointed in this. There's some fractures and pitted spots in it

Expensive stuff and getting hard to find!

That's about half the hunk I got. Paid a whopping $5 for that & the opalite.

Found just south of San Jose---I think Gilroy/Morgan Hill area. Nice specimens.

rocknrob: That was one heck of a windstorm that thankfully missed me. I guess Seatac almost hit 60mph gusts. I bet those were some fun landings Nov 20, 2024 21:55:16 GMT -5
