Small Rutilated Quartz added to our crushed rock section:

This is some very nice, smaller size but high quality Rutilated Quartz from Brazil. It comes in sizes from 1/4" to 3/4+". This rock is great for the rock tumbler, use it as is for fountains or other decorative uses. This is from a fresh new batch of rock that just came in so get some quick before it...

This piece of Mexican Lace amazed us! Each cut exposed more and more banding and a variety of colors, quickly becoming our current favorite rock! We polished the largest slab we cut it stands on its own and would make an incredible addition to any mineral collection :

Could be suitable for tumbling if you have a tumbler large enough!😀

New into the Rock Shed's rough/cutting rock section, Kambaba Jasper from Madagascar. This material is also sometimes referred to as Crocodile Jasper due to its green scale-like appearance. It will work great for cutting, 12lb+ larger rock tumblers, aquariums, or just for display. For size reference....
