#4 is out of this world but the cabs from this material are going to be superb! Thanks for being an "old stock miner".

Break on through to the other side!
Hard to believe that's what the inside of a rock looks like.

That's nice, Brian. I picked up a folding chop saw table off marketplace back in March, saw rocks lying about and asked about them.
The guy showed me about 150 lbs and said take it if I want it, he's moving to Colorado, so I did. Close to 100 lbs of it is bloody basin that he said he collected with the Prescott club. Nice stuff, been slabbing as I can but working on insulating and getting a swamp into our "cabbing room" before it gets any hotter.

beefjello - I once tried searching for photos of vintage agate jewelry by Tiffany using every variation I could think of. Came up empty.
I wonder if any of your connections down there might have info on old Tiffany items.

TBH Vince I don't know much about it other than this bit that came up on pinterest (prolly jacked from somewhere else) Bloody Basin Arizona has a long history of producing gem quality plume agate and the material was once used by Tiffany and Company due to it's vibrant and colorful plumes. |
