I got a small piece of Mystery Mountain and Pink Lady from Tony through full moon. I cut a few slabs. I cut some of the Pink Lady, but I think I will glue it to a board and try the other end.

Looks like you can pull a couple of pretty nice ones out of that. For the enlightenment of us newbies could you put the full name of the material? I tried looking them up but not sure which is which. Is it Pink Lady Agate from Graveyard Point? Is the Mystery Mountain also plume agate?

Pink Lady is from the same area as RR and GP. Web searches are more about sales than information. Items listed on Etsy refer to Mystery Mountain as a plume agate.

I bought a PL slab at full moon and it had a fantastic pattern. Buying rough is tougher.

I buy material that is new to me by looking at the pattern of slabs and cabs. Variety reduces burn out.

Beautiful!
