I like all of these. I have something that looks so much like the first two. I thought it was Mookaite, but it isn't porcelain like enough. More of a sandy look to it. I really like the light brown ones. This will look better when completed.

Yup, great shape and shine. Curious what they are myself? The top rock is mookaite.... The second rock was found on the bank of the Colorado River in Bastrop County. The 3rd rock was found in a driveway in Bastrop County. I have been told that the 3rd one is Chert.

I would place my money on this one being Mookaite, but I'm not positive. I'm sure not all Mookaite is exactly the same. Anyway, here is that piece I compared with the first and second photos all done. Front back side
