I heard the term "Jasperoid" from the Tri-state lead district of Ok, Ks and Mo. There it is grey on grey jasper. The jasper was broken with uplift, then cemented with more grey jasper. Thanks for your video.

That's awesome! Thanks for sharing!

[@Ltn.Immelmann]

It would definitely be interesting to cut these stones into slices and polish the slices ⚒👍🤠

[@GoldPanDann]

They do make some beautiful cabs!

Crinoids are round cylinders. the black edge may come from Swamp Carbon when jasper-agate is in wet marsh conditions. Panama has black rimmed agate.

Thanks! Yeah I was starting to think crinoids! You sure helped concrete that thought!

[@GoldPanDann]

Crinoid? I was thinking it was something along those lines! Thanks for the comment!

[@veldasnyder2144]

the small peice looked like limb casting

[@GoldPanDann]

It very well could be a limb cast piece of petrified wood! There is some of that around! Thanks for watching and the comment!
