When I bought a tumble from the Rock Shed, I had the opportunity to purchase crushed rock at a discount so I bought "fancy" Jasper. To me it looks like brown chert with some slight cor variations. Is fancy jasper an actual catagory of stone?

Fancy jasper typically refers to dark green bloodstone that has many colors other than red in it.

Is fancy jasper an actual catagory of stone? If you'd post some pics of the rough wet and dry, we might be able to help identify if it's really Fancy Jasper. I was just at The Rock Shed and was perusing their bin of Fancy Jasper with Son Of Beach. If I remember correctly, there was some stuff in the bin that didn't look like the "normal" Fancy Jasper...along with other rough that did look like the norm. I think I even commented to Chad about the difference...

I recently got some fancy jasper from riverbendlapidary. Several fist-size pieces. Some are pure red or pure green, and some have mixed colors. I can take pictures once I get home.
