Here is some cabs I did, the images are not to bad. Thanks for looking. Burrow Creek (I think) I think this is some kind of Serpentine, a real bear to photo. Looks washed out but really is not. Bloodstone Agate with a back lit shot Really cool colored agate of some kind:) With some Druzy. Really really like this one. OJ I-dont-know-ite

They are all so cool! I really like the one with the druzy pocket and the I-don't-know-ite.

nice cabs! Your yellow and orange banded agate is an Agate creek Agates from Queensland, Australia ( Queenie). It's Burro Creek AZ like the animal. My favorite is the bloodstone. That's a good'un.....Mel

I have to agree with Sabre52 that blood stone is way cool.

Sabre is on the money with that greeny yellow and orange agate. Agate Creek Queensland Australia for sure. Love it. I reckon the bloodstone is pretty nice too.

beautiful stuff, every one... hard to pick a favorite but I'd end up going with the bottom "I don't knowite" if forced to choose. the back lit swirly agate is a good one, too! ahhh I like them all.

Thanks all, The 4th one down is what I think is some kind of Serpentine, but I could be way wrong with that. Thanks for the ID on the Aussie Agate I appreciate that. Now it begs the question of where the hell I got it as I am sure I don't have more. The last cab is fairly soft, less than a Moh 5 IMHO I actually know how the Burro Creek rock is spelled, well maybe I don't as I spelled it wrong Thanks again

Do you seal up your Druze pockets before hand?
