Shown above is a 50% Het Albino.
The reduced patterning prompted me to add Enchi over the years and the result is some very clean examples.
The stone above is form the aptly named 'Snake River' in the Western USA, it is reminiscent of Confetti Jasper (but, it is not). The snake river and tributaries can be found in six states (Washington, Wyoming, Idaho, Oregon, Utah, and Nevada), all of these states are known for having interesting rocks due to volcanic activity. I purchased a big box of random material from a guy in Idaho that he hand-picked. I have only tumbled a few of the 'smaller' pieces from the box, most of the stones are rather large and I have to expend the considerable effort to break them up (hammer/chisel) prior to tumbling.
