So I'm pretty sure this is one of the slabs that I got from the rock show last summer and I have no idea what it is.

Here's pics of both sides of the slab and a cab of it that I'm working on, which still needs a little more shaping.

Thanks!

Agree with drocknut and wpotterw. Dendritic opal.

The robber baron's cruelty may sometimes sleep, his cupidity may at some point be satiated; but those who torment us for our own good will torment us without end for they do so with the approval of their own conscience."
