Starburst Chrysanthemum Rhyolite Rough Chunk! Tiger Eye if not all the way

if not all the way through the entire stone

Deschutes Picture Jasper is an old stock Jasper that was mined along the Deschutes River near where it meets the Columbia River

so it should take a stunning polish

a variety we have pulled very little out since the first year the mine was in operation

One thing that is certain though

Starburst Chrysanthemum Rhyolite Rough Chunk! Tiger Eye if not all the wayStarburst Rhyolite is one of the old stock gemmy mexican rhyolites! It often has a flower like pattern, and sometimes went by the name of Chrysanthemum Rhyolite due to resemblance to the flower. The old stock Starburst Rhyolite cuts fantastically, often perfectly solid with minor fracturing, and takes a pretty good polish for a rhyolite. With the flower like structures, it can work into some amazing cabochons! Weight: Approx 3 lbs 2. 8 oz Measurements
