It's a nice hunk of rock, that's what it is!

It's a nice hunk of rock, that's what it is! Dunno how well that would go over as a description when cabs/jewelry are listed for sale.

Medicine Bow agate?
Looks most like that to me. There are similar with black dendrites (e.g., Snake River dendritic, dendritic opal), too.

It is really pretty whatever it is. Love the white banding in it. It has some killer cab potential

This looks like Medicine Bow. Some of this material will erode in the black plume area and is hard to tumble because of the soft plume.

Thank you everyone. It caught my eye as being unusual. Pretty good sized, about 6" by 4". Will be saving this one for when I can finally get the cabbing machine and trim saw.
