Really nice jasper I have rough of and never cut before. Don't know its name, its rather organic in rough. Reminds me of copralite.

It has a few small white plumes under the eye or core spot. Some nasty fractures though.

Argentina deep translucent blue color. Some inclusion layers, but very jelly like.

Bearings on they're way. Then reset motor and wheels. Will have my rough grinding good to go. Last step is do the same to my other grinder so I can have a sanding setup.

I cut this set recently for my mother and it came out real nice. I know, such a fine poppy jasper made into a bookend set? It was very fitting and what the material called for i thought. I managed to keep one small piece for some cabs. dont worry.
