Here's a few others that came out of the same load as Gaetz's. Here's the chunk I found ... no idea what it is and didn't find anything else like it. Green, yellow and pink, I think it will make nice pendants on a beaded necklace.  Here's some of it polished, it took a terrific shine.  Here's some miscellaneous stuff.  The is one that KD slabbed for me, isn't it gorgeous!  And a piece of Mexican Lace Agate that I dremeled down.  Sorry for the poor pics but thanks for looking. Cher |

I like your green"chunkite". It's great when mystery rock comes out good. All the others look wonderful too.

Cher-
What a fun batch! Those Greenies are killer. I'll bet you were thrilled to get that bunch done. Those are just spectacular.
I just love the before and after picts. Thanks for putting the green before and after. How neat is that comparison?
Great batch Cher! Go Greenies!!!

I think that agate and the lace piece will make nice pendants, as will the green stuff. Sure wish I knew what it was for sure but think it must be some kind of jasper. I probably shouldn't think though, it's hazardous to my health. *smile* Thanks again for looking.

 ;D killer shine on those, Cher! your lakers are spectacular! could that green stuff (you said it had pink in it?) be Unakite? that is native to your area more or less, isn't it? great looking batch, love that lace piece! LD

KD, thanks again for cutting those lakers, I really appreciate it. I wondered if it could be unakite but there's such a little amount of the pink in it, it's mostly green and yellow with dark green lines.

I don't know Stef, I was hoping that Ron (michiganrocks) might peek in here and give his thoughts on it. Think I'll do some searching and see if I can find some other info on it.

Hey, those are good pics! Really pretty agate but I sure haven't seen anything like the green material either. Really came out nice though. Keep it up....Mel
