You have some pretty and pretty unusual patterns there. Congratulations on a good selection of base material and a good run.

I absolutely LOVE brecciated material! Fantastic looking selection of material and good looking polish on those! The pink and white pieces look VERY much like Cotton Candy Agate...which is one of my favorites!

Very nice. The third rock, and those like it, are my favorite.

Been on a bit of a breccia kick lately, these are great to see.

I think most of that is brecciated jasper from South Africa. It seems to have the opaque white, clear, and pink and red tones, with a little black pepper sprinkled in. I just finished slabbing some. This particular slab doesn't have much color, but I think I see a resemblance. I've cut other pieces from S. Africa that look much more like your tumbles. I can never get a wet polish on it, but I like it enough to keep cutting it. It does shine pretty well, just not agate shiny.
