Transcript and Presenter's Notes

Title: Tumbled Stones


1
Arizona Splash Copper
  • Arizona Splash Copper is formed from pure copper
    mined in central Arizona. It is heated to a
    scorching 2200F, splashed, cooled, and
    cleaned to give each piece its unique shape. A
    second application of heat creates
  • the colorful patina. The metallic luster of
    copper in combination with the rainbow coloring
    adds glimmer to any room and decor.

2
Amethyst Geodes
  • Amethyst is the most valuable and regal of quartz
    gemstones. Rich hues extending from light pinks
    to deep purples are attributed to the presence of
    iron or manganese. Volcanic in origination,
    amethyst geodes are formed by cavities or bubbles
    in lava which are exposed to water containing
    iron and crystallized over time.

3
Jasper
  • Jasper is a patterned form of chalcedony quartz,
    generally opaque and found in virtually any
    color. Comprised of impure silica, jasper is
    common, varied, and usually found in deep hues of
    red, yellow brown or green. Polychrome Jasper or
    Desert Jasper is a relatively new find in the
    Mineral World.

4
Malachite
  • Malachite is an intensely green stone known for
    its distinctive veining, patterning, and
    orbicular quality. This gemstone is a copper
    carbonate formed from copper containing solutions
    near copper ore deposits. Many spectacular green
    and blue specimens include deposits of azurite
    and chrysocolla incorporated into the malachite.

5
Petrified Wood
  • They offer a wide selection of high quality
    specimens at excellent prices with the best of
    customer service. We couldnt be happier after
    almost 10 years of being a customer and will
    continue to purchase though Rockology in the
    future.
