Attention Rock Hounds: Here's another inventory reduction. The Labradorite stones are kind of hard to take a picture of, when moving them in your hand, you see the flash, or especially when they're out in the sunshine. The bag price on the Labradorite is about $3.35 each when you buy the whole bag. This is a great deal I'm offering so that I can get my inventory down. If interested, call Rich.

Attention Rock Hounds: Dug these out a while back, not even sure how long I've had these, has to be at least 10 years or more. These are ones that I tumble polished myself years ago, and yes, the same price is still on them. These are marked down 50% if you buy the entire box, and if you buy both boxes, I'll knock another $15 off and a total for the two boxes would be $210.00. I don't care where you go, you won't find Brazilian agate tumble polished to a beautiful finish for this price or even anything close to this price. Each piece in these boxes is marked with the price that is very fair and if you sell the entire flat piece by piece, you would more than double your money by just setting the box down at a Rock and Mineral show.

Attention Rock Hounds: I can't sleep this morning so I thought I'd make another post. Found this mixed batch of obsidian, mahogany, snowflake, and I think some black obsidian. This was all buried under the 40 pounds of Apache tears. This stuff has been around here for many, many years and I think it's time for a new owner. Great stuff for cutting, making Cabochons, Tumbling or just for display. If you are interested Call Rich “The Rock Guy” at 570-687-3072 or 570-687-3070 or email me at. richybarniscrystalconnection@gmail.com

Crystal Connection.
Apache Tears are small, rounded nodules of black, volcanic glass
(A Special type of Obsidian) formed when lava cools quickly, often found in the American Southwest, especially Arizona, and are named after a Native American legend about warriors' tears turning to stone. These stones are prized in jewelry and spirituality for their smooth texture and ability to absorb grief, offering comfort and emotional healing, and they appear opaque black but are translucent when held to light
Spiritual Use: Popular for protection, grounding, meditation, and bringing serenity during difficult times
Emotional Healing: Known as "the stone that heals sorrow," it's used to absorb grief, release negative emotions, and promote forgiveness
The Legend: A tragic 19th-century legend tells of Apache warriors jumping from a cliff to avoid capture; their mourning families' tears fell and formed these stones. I have had these Apache tears for many, many, years and I did a deep dive into my pile and dug these out. As you can see, these are very nice size Apache tears, the larger ones are hard to find on the market today and if you were lucky enough to find them, you would pay several dollars for each one. The ones you are looking at usually sell for one dollar to about five dollars depending on the size. I am selling them at a wholesale price by the pound, and you won't find them anywhere else for this price.
Do you own any currently ? If you do not, and you are looking for some, please call the Crystal Connection.

Attention Rock Hounds: These are the larger ones Cabochons 30 X 40mm for sale.
If you would like to buy a few, the prices are marked and they are very old prices. You won't find these prices anywhere else in today's market.
You can also save money by purchasing this entire 24 piece lot for $125.00 and that would be a savings of $31.00 off this already low, old, price.
A lot of work goes into making a Cabochon, a beginner can spend three hours or more on one stone. You would also need expensive machines to do this from start to finish. A slab has to be cut or bought and then you draw it on the slab and rough cut it out. You then attach the stone to a stick for easier handling. Then you shape the girdle and dome using coarse wheels (80–220 grit). Then it’s time for sanding and smoothing the stone to remove scratches by using finer wheels (325–1200 grit). Then it is time for polishing, Oxide polishes are typically mixed with water to create a slurry and applied to felt, leather, or canvas pads. So as you can imagine, there is a lot of work to make one of these beauties. Save time and money call Rich the rock guy at
