Anyone know what these are? This one one is weird. Is this Stony Creek? Thanks, Andrea

Generally speaking brecciated jasper. Not sure if they have specific trade names. First one bears some resemblance to Montana bark jasper but the colors are different. Second one could be brecciated chapenite or Burro Creek brecciated jasper, mot likely the latter...Mel

Whatever they may be, that slab is interesting! Looks like it could take a nice polish as well.
