I received my winnings from Stoneage Industries the other day and started cutting some of the rocks and this is what I found in the first of the 3 pieces of Cathedral agate I got. And this is just the first slab. Here's one of the cabs from this slab. I posted some others as well as some Black Zebra agate and a spider jasper cab in the cab section.

man that's some nice stuff, I think I would look into polishing that slab and leaving it as a display piece - it sure is nice stuff. Love the cab

Well folks, this slab is history, but it sure did make some nice cabs though. I slabbed some more off of this rock today so I may keep one of the slabs as a display piece. I also slabbed the other two rocks, and wow, that's all I can say, is WOW! I'll take some pics a little later.
