Mineral ExchangesSwap ocean jasper cabbing slabs for some lapidary work

5th Mar 2011 20:55 UTCSister Elias Freeman, OSB.Sol

Ocean jasper--the orbicular jasper from Madagascar--is one of my favorite jaspers. I have about fifty or sixty slabs and slices, none of which is polished. I really would like to have some of the better ones flat lapped. I can't do any lapidary work myself, but I would be glad to trade some of these slabs in exchange for having others polished by a lapidary. I've tried other methods, coatings, etc., but nothing could ever be a substitute for a real polishing.


If anyone is interested, email me at sisterelias@comcast.net or call me at 732-636-5111 in central New Jersey. I've never tried this before, but I'm sure we could work it out.


Thanks a lot.
