Yep, that's a 14 pound chunk of it. I still can't bring myself to cutting it up, had it for almost two years.

I see I'm not the only one with rocks all over the desk LOL! Cool stuff Randy. The sodalite is really nice. I can see the reason for your dilemma!

Very cool! That drusy is always a sparkler. Do I see selenite and whiskey calcite in the second pic? 14lbs!! wow, that is some chunk! What's the green stripey chunk in the last pic?

Yep, selenite and "orange" calcite. The green striped rock is a 25 pound chunk of green zebra agate from Brazil, another rock that I can't bring myself to cut. It's too cool!
