I picked up this chunk of San Simeon jasper from California on ebay a few weeks ago... seems to me to be similar to Stone Canyon jasper, but with red hues instead of yellow. A lot cheaper too, which is always nice ;D. Anyhow, I don't recall seeing this on this board before, but maybe I just missed it. -Don

Thanks for the comments.
One80mike, yes, all those fractures are healed with chalcedony.
