| Jelly Bean 'like' Jasper Mix $3.50 per pound I was able to pick up a few boulders of this stuff from a fellow who had some very old stock. This stuff is a 'kick' to tumble, very hard and breaks up easily into tumbling size pieces. I have tumbled some and clicking on the text will launch the photo of the finished stones. They tumble into some spectacular stones with a variety not unlike Ohio Flintridge flint. Email me if you are looking for stock larger than crushed 'tumbling size. |
Burro Creek Agate $2.50 per pound From the Burro Creek area in Arizona comes some of the best agate Arizona has to offer. This was all hand collected and is terrific for cabbing, slabbing and tumbling. The colors range from the rare blue and pastel purple to the chocolate brown and frosted white with dendrites. It is a very interesting mix of rocks that polish up excellently. Email me if you are looking for stock larger than crushed 'tumbling size. |

Green Aventurine Quartz $2.50 per pound This quartz gets its green color from the mineral fushite. It comes in colors ranging from a very pale to dark. It comes from the Southeast desert and is found as float. Many of the pieces are very symetrical and have good square edges. The sizes range from 2x2 up to the size of a volley ball. It cuts easily and smooth and breaks up nicely for tumbling. |
 |
Plume Agate $2.50 per pound A lot of this is 'Graveyard point' Plume agate, and even some 'Regency' Plume can be found in this mix. A nice hard material used most for slabbing, but I have enough to break it up and give 'tumblers' a chance to experiment with this material. Pieces are from a quarter inch to about 2 inches for tumbling and baseball size for cutting. |

Fossil Agate $2.00 per pound This agate is colored with deep reds, yellows, some blue, and ocassionally green. It polishes to a high luster and is very hard. I try to eliminate as much of the porous coral and plant material as posible before shipping it out. Sizes vary from 1/2" to pieces weighing in excess of 15 pounds. Great to slab, crush and tumble or even decorations. A very colorful Agate |
Apache Tears (Obsidian) $4.50 per pound From Superior Arizona these tears have an amazing clarity when tumbled or polished. I have faceted a few and they are georgous. Tumbled with a couple of weeks in 60/90 they are beautifully shaped and polished with Tin Oxide they are an amazing stone for jewelry, drilling as beads or just in a bowl. In the products section I have a picture of some that I have polished. |

Obsidian $2.50 per pound Black Obsidion from the Coronado Trail in Arizona as well as other sources around the country. Different sizes and kinds all pulled from an old rockhounds collection. I have cut and cabbed some of these and have found a silver sheen in some of them as well as some bits of mahogany. Larger pieces would be great for knapping. |

Picture Jasper $2.50 per pound Picture Jaspers from various sites in Utah and Idaho. The rocks are Owyhee picture Jaspers primarily but not easily defined as to which mine they were taken from. All of them have nice lines and some have a teal to darker green/blue color to them along with the tans and browns. These will be boxed and packaged as a mix of Picture Jaspers as they all came from the buyout inventory of a collection from the 50's. |
