North Point Plume at Swordfish Mining
Well Here is a thin slice I made at the end of the rock. Slabs to follow at some point. The real thin ones are great for use in earrings where weight is a consideration. The sparkly green is marcasite.

Wow, that really is thin. What is that about 3 or 4mm thick?

A few more scans, some uncovered: There are two types from this dig site. The "feathers" and the "horse hairs"
