I picked up a slab at a show and the seller had no idea what or where, etc. Really a beauty in my book of what the heck is it. It would be nice to find some more of this stuff if I find out what it is.
thanks, neal

I'm not sure if it was the same thing, but I saw a stone with similar pattern,but somewhat different color, referred to as "fireworks jasper."

When I cut the slab it had no signs of being any type of obsidian. Much more like a jasper sediment type of rock. Cannot think of the names right now but I am aware of several rocks that have star type patterns when slabbed. The answer is out there.. thanks all
