Awesome box! And free to boot...cant beat that!! I'm terrible at IDs so cant help you on that, except the green and black kambaba jasper which is likely the easiest in the box to identify haha. Great treat to have to play around with in a time such as this. I had been hoping and banking on an annual backyard rock sale in early April to stock up on some material but unfortunately it's not happening now. Worst is, guy who does the sale is moving and has been trying to sell off everything before the move. Had been crossing my fingers that he would have one last sale before then but think that ship has sailed. Congrats on the good fortune and awesome of roy for being so generous! |

I wish I knew what most of these are.. but one stood out to me the most. What is this stuff  Super cool! Those look like Haystack/Jellybean jasp-agate to me, but will be interested in what Roy says. Gorgeous! |

Gorgeous! I like that stuff too! I didn't notice any chatoyant examples. Could it be Binghamite? That seems to have similar colors and that property. My favorite of the bunch:) |
