Really nice. I'm guessing on of the northern Mexico varieties, maybe Coyamito or Agua Nueva....Mel

I'd lean towards Coyamito as that type is famous for tubes and pseudomorphs and colors tend to often be in the Pink/red/purple range....Mel

Nice example. Most all Keegan I've seen looks like that to some extent. Basically a transparent agate with white tubes Never seen a slab that big but I still think the price is way out of line. But then, everything is worth what you can get for it *S*....Mel
