Thanks guys, the color of the left one is unique. It seems to be a stain in the rock. First piece that had it from the larger chunk.

Good lookin stuff for a notoriously hard to work material. One of these days I'm going to have to try some of that stuff.

I hope you don't mind me posting some of
the rhyolite points I made from the stuff
you helped me find a couple years ago.
Nothin pretty but they should last forever.
Thanks, Zuma

Zuma, I don't mind the post, heck those are some fine points. Rhyolite will posses a knapper. I have some good Texas rock and will pick up the rhyolite because I know the challenge and reward is so great.... :o
