Some new to me material, finally got my hands on a decent amount labradorite from Newfoundland. Excited to slice into this stuff and try it out some more. Much larger pieces than I was able to find previously. Ill post some pics when I get something finished, spring is almost here so that means not freezing fingers off while cuttingšŸ‘Œ

Few other pieces I finished up with the labradorite batch. Some of my favorite jasper/agate in the first pic. Stuff takes an amazing polish and has very nice patterns to it. Second id say is a form of jasper with some hematite and chalcedony inclusions. Last two are of a banded porcelain agate with lots of revealed fractures(pretty typical for coming out of the ) possibly identified as a "crazy lace" due to the pattern on there according to a few of my American followers, however I haven't dug into that myself

Searched for this ever since I began my journey into minerals and lapidary. Only managed to get a handful of smaller pieces out of the two raw specimens I purchased. Shown here is only the single best piece from the batch that shows color on both sides with relative ease. At the beginning of this hobby, labradorite quickly became my personal favorite mineral, so I searched and searched to get some true Canadian labradorite. Personally, im happy with what I have, but I would love to find much more some day

A few that i haven't gotten around to polishing yet. Some beautiful banding and patterns to these. Definitely think they'll turn out amazing when I do get to polish them.
