  • Septarian Nodule Bowl

    Notes specific to this specimen: An entirely unique item, this septarian nodule was excavated and carved into a bowl by Jon in 2018. The specimen is from the famous Muddy Creek septarian beds in southern Utah, east of Zion National Park. Our friends own a mining claim there and we periodically visit them to collect nodules. Most septarians are not conducive to carving into bowls. This is the only septarian nodule bowl ever sculpted by Jon. He kept it as his own since the day he sculpted it. Alas, it is being displaced from his personal collection by other, larger projects. It has a beautiful shine and fluoresces nicely under UV light. Jon has indicated he may – or may not! – ever do another one.

  • Volcanic Bomb (EB1)

    Notes specific to this specimen: Large, excellent, classic fusiform bomb with superb aerodynamic striations. Natural split reveals chalcedony interior which fluoresces a vibrant green. This specimen is first class.

  • Volcanic Bomb (EB12)

    Notes specific to this specimen: Large, rare, combination fusiform bomb. This is the result of three individual magma projectiles running into each other in flight. In this case the merge of these three individuals was early in the ejection event but after the individual projectiles had started acquiring their own individual character. The combination of these three bombs resulted in one very large cigar-shaped bomb which acquired it’s own form which dominated the final shape before falling back to Earth.

  • Volcanic Bomb (EB14)

    Notes specific to this specimen: Rare double bomb. These unique specimens form when two magma projectiles run into each other in flight before they completely harden. In this case the merge was early in the ejection event, before the two projectiles had started to acquire their own individual character. Instead the combination of the two was almost obliterated by the overall form taking shape before they fell back to Earth.

  • Volcanic Bomb (EB2)

    Notes specific to this specimen: Rare, beautifully-shaped double bomb. These unique specimens form when two magma projectiles run into each other in flight before they completely harden. Each had started to acquire it’s own individual character before they combined and fell to Earth.

  • Volcanic Bomb (EB4)

    Notes specific to this specimen: Large classic plump fusiform bomb with great aerodynamic striations. It looks like it encountered another in flight but did not complete the merging with it. Natural breaks reveals chalcedony interior which fluoresces a vibrant green. A great specimen.

  • Volcanic Bomb (EB6)

    Notes specific to this specimen: Complex plump fusiform bomb with smooth aerodynamic striations. Apparently ran into another bomb during flight and part of that bomb is still attached but is not complete. Natural breaks reveal chalcedony interior which fluoresces a vibrant green. Unusual.
