Those are great Rob, I never picture unakite having that mossy look like your last photo. That slab needs to be cabbed!
these could also go in the slabs and saws section. Did you hand feed these or are you using that vise now?

I clamp a piece of wood to the saw that acts as a fence. It's not perfect, but it works pretty well.

Unakite contains the obvious orange feldspar, green epidote and generally quartz. In my experience though, the very pretty green and orange material I see for sale or in jewelry contains little quartz. With the quartz it's almost a different material. Yours are great examples of that.
