Nice selection of counter scraps with flash/sparkle and a mix of Chalcedony/Fossils.
Spring cleaning in a Blizzard. Gotta love Wisconsin!
MFRB, $48.00 includes shipping to lower USA.
This will be heavily packaged due to weight. The counter scraps will be individually wrapped. Will use the double box system or at least double inside corners to ensure no corner breakage. Lotsa tape on outside of box.
The counter scraps are a variety of sizes, shapes and colors. All have flash and or sparkle. Most contain either Garnets or what appears to be Peridot or another type of green quartz. Note that there are surface scratches on most pieces. One has a crack going part way through, as pictured.
A nice cabbing mix. Some photos show the end grains. All are 1 1/8” to 1 ¼” thick.
The Chalcedony/Fossils could be sliced, broken for tumbles (maybe very large tumbles as is, depending) or kept as specimens. Cabbing potential as well. Hard to photo capture the cell structure in these, but most have some. Added the term Chalcedony as a disclaimer, as I do not know for sure which of these are corals, sponges, or burrows with replacement material. Most have some quartz type replacement. Agate formations in some. Some with Oolictic presence. Some are partially or totally silicified. A couple Stromatoporoids included. All collected on my land in Central WI. Just trying to describe as best I can.
If anyone is interested, I can put together MFRB or SFRB’s with just the Chalcedony/Fossils or just the Counter scraps. Everything would be photographed prior to shipment for your approval.
Counter scraps are $18.00-SFRB and $32.00 MFRB, including shipping. If a find more Larvikite, that would be priced accordingly to quality and size.
Chalcedony/Fossils are $50.00 for MFRB. Not enough smaller material left for SFRB’s until the snow melts.
Representative photos here of what is included in this box, rest in Flickr Album. Album contains multiple views of all Chalcedony/Fossils, views of all counter ends and more views of the counter scraps. Weight before reinforcements/tape is 28.6 lbs. If there is room for more, I will add more.
Thanks for looking.
