READ BEFORE PURCHASE: FULL DISCRIPTIVE DISCLOSURE DO NOT BE DECIVED PLEASE
1/2 pound = 226 grams. These slabbed out items are hard stuck to the matrix base, a little trim work to what you want and these would be ready to cab up, there is enough gem vein cap on each to make very unique color and pattern LOW DOME cabs. If you only make HIGH DOME these are not for you. This is what we like to work with in our own shop here at the mine shop.NOTE these are Tonopah Greenish vs Bluish (the lighting for some reason made these look a little more blue?? and we do not adjust lighting or colors for our postings we try to make it as real and natural as possible so as not to decive anyone. Hoping only t help out with your choice of ore to cut and value add.
