Edit: This has been pointed out to me as being Disaster Peak Jasper, not Rocky Butte! Pretty pleased with the way this one turned out. I still feel like the polish could be better, but this was the best I got with 14K diamond paste followed by cerium oxide (the best set up I have at the moment). Rough:

I agree, you got a great polish and really highlighted the rock's scenic pattern. I am quite sure, however, that this is a piece of Disaster Peak, rather than Rocky Butte (not that it lessens your cab in any way).

You know, I had been wondering if it was actually Disaster Peak! I have some unslabbed pieces of that that bear quite a resemblance....I snagged this little slab on eBay under the title "Old Stock Rocky Butte" so figured the seller knew better than me since I've never had any other Rocky Butte. Lesson learned, thanks for the correction!!! |
