Nice specimens Lowell! Always fun to visit the Cady's vicariously and see what all y'all find. Neat to see there are still some seams of that plume material out beyond the fluorite mine area. Those are often a booger to work out of the native rock but well worth the work. I spent many an hour out there on the hillsides chiseling away at a nice plume seam. My last time out, I got so tired out that I forgot and left a big pile of rough sitting right by the outcrop. Forgot I left it to mark the top of a huge nodule I had exposed that I had intended to go back to and dig out *L*.....Mel
