Brains? Who needs them? The Scarecrow got along fine! Molten silver hates the cold! As am electrician I had to do "Lead Wiping." www.powerandcables.com/lead-wiping-cables/The least cold draft and the lead would crystalize, creating a path for the insulating oil to leak out.

I'm pretty positive it's rainforest "jasper" from Queensland, Australia. I would have sent you one for free had I known you wanted one. How about photos? Having a location is special! Not any piece will do. It needs that shape - I wish I was young and could fill out the section on Australian t-eggs.

It looks like a rainforest jasper- which is a rhyolite- which is full of tiny agate thundereggs- right? Right! It is rhyolite - but Ithought it came from Bulgaria - quote author=" 1dave" source="/post/1262474/thread" timestamp="1675168493"]OH! Surprise! Well, the photo is really all I need. [/quote] But it was shipped from Raj. India So . . .

I saw this on line and bought it - I went shopping for rhyolite cabs this morning - AND bought this tiny Thunderegg! It arrived today, and is even more than I hoped for! I can see down into the agate, the outer shell is present, I'm ecstatic! I'll have to get Sharon to take some photos for me! The Thunderegg is Three Eighths of an inch in diameter!
The cab is well made - too bad the cutter didn't know what he had, but he got most of it!

Perhaps the white is colloidal clay? That blue to me looks like more than just reflected light bouncing around. Where did you say it came from? Cracks in volcanic rock?

More than normal breakup/shrinkage, AND interesting (thought provoking) the way the iron is spread around.

I don't think we have a bag limit on puddingstones.... I did see there's a limit to Petosky stones, 25 lb/year.... Just sayin'.... Weird People pass all these laws . . . IF they catch you there will be HELL TO PAY, but who is paying attention, and who really cares? Most places you could fill a dump truck of whatever sacred stuff and no one would even look.

I purchased a copy too! We have thundereggs here in BC Canada, though I haven't found any yet. I just enjoy reading and learning. Thank you! Yes! I mentioned them in the book and hope YOU can tell us more.
