Title: July Vibe Tumble UV-18
Post by: victor1941 on August 04, 2020, 03:09:34 PM
My latest 18-pound tumble included small slabs of petrified wood, plume, and unknown from Mexico.

All my slabs fresh out of the tumble.

Possible ant/termite burrows before petrification.

Woodward Ranch Plume (Shows Botryoidal formation) In the last pic I am using a dental pick to clear out media. I use a high-pressure spot cleaning machine to remove excess polish powder.

Your plant looks like some kind of clematis. Do you have any pictures of it in blossom? Some very cool, interesting slabs there. Any idea what the blue and yellow one is? Like the botroidal plume agates, too

Yes, I looked it up and it was Clematis Drummondi. I don’t think that there are any blue and yellow cabs. What it shows must be reflected light from the window
