Jeffrey P Posted January 7, 2016 Share Posted January 7, 2016 Nice specimen, Herb and fine photography. Haylisites was always one of my favorites. Unfortunately the ones found near here aren't silicified and as visible as yours. Thanks for posting. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
