Brecciated should be spelled breakiated. Mother nature made it by breaking at and then gluing it back together. The areas to avoid are those that are not completely healed but there are always surprises

Indeed. I always like to joke, “how did that fracture get into my brecciated jasper?”

Ok this is the last of the slab!

And this is the other piece of Rhyolite. This was more challenging for me and will take some more practice. Also didn't notice that crack across the top quarter until almost done. It didn't break during the polish or coming off the door in the freezer so maybe ok?

rocknrob: That was one heck of a windstorm that thankfully missed me. I guess Seatac almost hit 60mph gusts. I bet those were some fun landings Nov 20, 2024 21:55:16 GMT -5
