I posted the pet wood and Turquoise colored stone under ID. Here is the rest of the lapidary items I came home with from the storage unit sale. Will be back again today to do some more trading. Would rather make my own cabs, but these were too good to be true. All cabs: cabs all Labradorite. Phone did not pick up on the blues and turquoise in this. cab lab Fossil Coral. Dark cerillium blue color. cab coralReticulated Quartz, a nice one. Lots of gold threads in a clear/honey base. ret qtz A great banded Amethyst cab ameth Hope to further polish the cabs eventually. Some slabs. One is plumy. The blue one is Sodalite (I think). A couple Montana’s. Some unknowns. slabs A few great Quartz Points qtz points

Good score!
FYI - It's rutilated quartz.

Great find! And yes you were right not to pass them up! That green one looks like OJ, not fossil. The Chevron amythest are great and I love rutilated quartz.

Nice pattern on the amethyst ("Chevron amethyst" in the trade) cabs. Nice slabs, too.

Yes, rutilated quartz. Spell check got the best of me on that one. I asked the person who made the fossil coral cab what it was. He said fossil coral, but it could be OJ too. I was back there again today.
