Spotted potential amethyst crystals on this rock I found along the Matanuska River. Decided to soak in concentrated vinegar to dissolve some of the calcite. Anyone know what the salmon-colored crystals might be?

Cut some recent finds from the Matanuska: 18.5 lb Jasper, 8 lb. (surprise !) oolitic moss agate and stunning jasp-agate.

Heartbreaker! Dropped the cabochon during polishing. I’ll reshape and repolish. Pretty plume jasper/agate/opal found on the chilly Matanuska last week.
