Oh-Man Posted January 16, 2010 Share Posted January 16, 2010 Made a quick trip out to a spot SilverPhoenix and I have hunted in the past. It was raining lightly which made it easier to spot stuff. Found some jasper and agate, and the 4 palm pieces below, but no snakewood! The big piece weighs about 4 lbs and I found it in the water, the small piece on the bottom is part of a root ball and the one next to that is red, but you may have to trust be on that due to the resolution...

Oh-Man Posted January 21, 2010 Author Share Posted January 21, 2010 It looks pretty plain and ugly on film , but the people in the paleo club really enjoyed it last night! What is geology? "Rocks for Jocks!" Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Hawkeye Posted January 21, 2010 Share Posted January 21, 2010 Nice stuff! Have you ever tried polishing one side? If you believe everything you read, perhaps it's time for you to stop reading... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Oh-Man Posted January 22, 2010 Author Share Posted January 22, 2010 Nice stuff! Have you ever tried polishing one side? I've tried a couple of times with mixed success. With that being said the best palm piece I have is one from this same locale. It's golden palm and polished up looks like honey with coffee colored straws running through it. Super cool.

barefootgirl Posted January 22, 2010 Share Posted January 22, 2010 Great finds! I would love to see the polished pieces tht you have.
