I agree, nice looking cabs! Could the first one be a nydegger plume agate? There are a few different spellings I have seen for nydegger. Nyedigger is another. Lots of plume agates that may be similar.

Nice! Can't help, but I think Bob is onto something. The pietersite is awesome!

First one could be from almost anywhere in the Oregon/Nevada/Idaho area - and probably even AZ. I found some material that looks a lot like it in the Fernley NV area a couple years ago.
Second one is almost certainly Richardson's Ranch moss. The green matrix is the giveaway.

Great cabs!
I agree with Tommy on the Richardson's moss, either a Priday Red or Moss Bed T-egg core.
Agree with Mel on the Stinkingwater. White in translucent white is classic for that locale.

Thank you so much for the compliments & your help Mel, Tommy & captbob. Hey Adrian that does look like a lemon slice. I didn't even notice until you mentioned it.

the first cab is from the geode that i found here in Illinois and cut and sent slabs to Donnie . There is a link to the pictures of on this post. does look very similar to stinking water plume but is not. Stinking water usually has fernlike plumes . the plume here is more cloudlike .
