Ochoco Sunset Cutting Rough Flatrate - Warm Sunset Tones - Old Stock Bill Quant Material
This old stock flatrate of Ochoco Sunset was dug by Bill Quant and his wife during their rockhounding and mining days in Oregon's Ochoco Mountains. This box features great cutting rough that should produce some nice slabs and cabs. With Bill Quant having passed away, this material stands as a memorial to his legacy in Oregon lapidary history.

Ochoco Sunset Agate is a jasp-agate with considerable variety mined by Bill Quant in Oregon's Ochoco Mountains. It can have marcasite-like pattern, moss agate, fish egg patterns, and often features an attractive sunset-like scene with warm colors. It takes a quality polish, though some iron-heavy types may need treatment due to pits.
WHAT MAKES IT SPECIAL
This flatrate carries the personal provenance of miner Bill Quant, offering considerable variety across the pieces. The jasp-agate nature means you may find marcasite patterns, moss, fish egg formations, and sunset scenes throughout the box.
