Looks like some of the older Calico Lace (Chihuahua).

This slab may be Rivera plume.

This slab may be Rivera plume. I agree with Victor - Riviera Agate from Mexico. I believe this material has been mined out for about forty years now. Larry C.

This slab may be Rivera plume. Ding ding ding! Rivera plume agate it is. I was like "I KNOW THIS ONE!!!" reading down the comments but as usual I was too late Beautiful slab and will be some beautiful cabochons no doubt.
