I'm gonna cut it up and tumble it ;D The two pieces in the front are slabs, he threw them in as a gift! The rest are really nice sized chunks, I should have stuck a coin in the pic. Hmmmm, I'll be right back. lol

I've never seen the stuff in person Randy, it appears to be agatized and/or opalized. Is it, and if so, is it all that way or is this more high end?
It sure is nice stuff, I'm gonna have to get some to slab n' cab.

Thanks Randy, those are great. I thought the same thing, that looks very agatized rather than having the smoother look of jasper. Can't wait to see what you do with them, those are going to be really beautiful when they are finished.

I hadn't noticed before but they do have an appearance of agate. When dry they are glassy on the edges.
