*New information below on contents of post(for general viewing) and desired/missing material.
For anyone who still has stuff to share - Please-
Drag out your Utah material! Share with the world!
We are starting this project with a request for images of material (agate/jasper) from the great state of Utah. Any material posted here will be considered for inclusion into the database. (We only need a couple images for each specimen type - so if we receive more than a few, only a couple will be published.)
If you have any that you're willing to share, please post with a brief note on the region and its common name (if it has one.) Credit for the photo will be assigned to your name or online title (or not at all if that's your choice.)

Any material that fits under the heading agate/jasper is welcome to be posted here, even if it is from lesser known locations.
A sample of some of the better known agates/locations we're hoping to have provided are:
grape agate from thompson region
Kanab flame agate
golden swirl agate from near Levan
St. George/Central - white agate geodes
agate from Yellow Cat locality
agate from the Cisco region
agate from the Hanksville region
agate from the San Rafael Reef region
but it doesn't have to be just these places.
There are dozens of places I've not mentioned that would be readily known to people outside the state. We'd love to see sample of these.
If in doubt, POST!
In two weeks I'll have an initial file to see what works and doesn't.
Thanks all!
