Polished Thundereggs

PAGE 1

Welcome to thunderegg heaven! Almost all of these are Oregon thundereggs collected by myself and other rockhounds both in ancient times (in other words, 50 years ago) through the last time my trailer left the driveway! These are halves for display, not slabs. The size of each is noted, a well as the location where they were collected. None of the photos are enhanced - indeed, the photos don't do these proper justice. They are all have as high a polish as is possible have no visible scratches. I am extremely picky about that. Many of these are rare types that you simply aren't going to find for sale anywhere else. Unless you know somebody who knows somebody...

All pieces will be sent Parcel Post mail or flat rate priority mail ($9.55 - $20.95), depending on weight, whichever is less unless you specify the shipping method. The majority will be priority mail padded flat rate envelope = $9.55.

About Fluorescent Eggs: Many of these fluoresce in SW (shortwave) and/or LW (longwave) UV (ultraviolet) light. Some are spectacular, displaying bright and subtle green, yellow, blue, white, or purple colors. Many times the fluorescent colors are very different from the visible light colors, and don't necessarily look similar. In other words you can get a different "look" under UV light vs. visible light. I note where they are usually fluorescent under my SW and LW lights; some eggs fluoresce in green or yellow but not very strongly. They're still cool to look at under UV anyway.

If you've recently visited this page, be aware that your browser may have cached the images and although all browsers are supposed to catch new images and reload them, sometimes they don't. So hit the refresh button below just in case to make sure you have the latest pics.

There's a simple fix for Firefox:

Type "about:config" in the website address box. This should load the Firefox config settings in the window for editing. You may see a warning message stating, "This might void your warranty!" (which is an in-joke, they don't have one), click on it to load the settings. Then search for the "browser.cache.check_doc_frequency" key and change it to "1".

For those of you who are looking for something specific in my for sale pages, such as when I list new items, I might have a solution for you. You may want to try this: https://www.changedetection.com, I think all you do is sign up and enter the address of the page, for example if you are looking for equipment enter http://orerockon.com/equipment_for_sale.html, and they should send you an email when I add something. BUT, it probably will send you a notice when I change one letter of one sentence on the page, so you might get annoyed by it at some point. It's a great way to track when I list new polished items, since I typically don't change anything until something sells and/or I add items, and equipment, which I never change unless I add new pieces or change the status to "sold" as they sell.

Thunderegg	Number	Location	Size	Price	Available?
	Egg 01	Priday Plume Bed, Richardson Ranch, Madras, OR	4 1/4", this one is from the "right layer" to find the famous cauliflower plume agate eggs. It is, sadly, a "good try" specimen. Still, a very nice egg. Soooo close...	$13.00	YES
	Egg 02	Buchanan Tube egg, OR	9", at least 5 pound monster. Almost nobody has these tube eggs, they are only found in the corner of one of 5 beds on the property. I dug it with the rancher (and his backhoe!). It was cut on 2 faces, they meet at the center, and are (securely!) expoxied together. You can't see the seam from the front side. This took me way to long to cut and polish, and it's painful but I have to let it go. Yes, I have the other half!	$65.00	YES
	Egg 03	Buchanan Tube egg, OR	5 1/4" egg, another segment of the same egg. I think it was around 16" long. As you can see the upper right corner is on a different angle than the rest of it.	$25.00	YES
	Egg 04	Buchanan bed, Buchanan OR	3 3/4", nice botyroidal chalcedony cavity. For the thundergeeks, when part of the shell breaks off during formation and ends up surrounded by agate, it's called a "floater".	$12.00	YES
	Egg 05	Pink Abbey bed, Madras OR	4 1/4", this is a special egg so locality collectors take note! This bed has changed hands a handful of times and has only been dug a handful of times. It's pretty much legendary among locality collectors. If you have some, it's likely you were there with me on the 2 trips that the previous owner hosted. This one has a small area filled with epoxy above the red dot. It's also from a newer bed than the one that had been seriously dug.	$20.00	YES
	Egg 06	Priday Moss Bed, Richardson Ranch OR	3 1/4" brown/gold moss agate.	$3.00!	SOLD
	Egg 07	Succor Creek, Owyhee Mountains, OR	4 1/2" triple egg, this comes from one pit that I know of that has the black flecks in the agate.	$15.00	YES
	Egg 08	Lucky Strike Mine, Ochoco Mtns., OR	2 1/2" cute little bugger.	$6.00	YES
	Egg 09	Ochoco Agate Bed, Ochoco Mtns., OR	2 1/2", unusual opaque waterline center. Most of these have clear agate.	$8.00	NEW
	Egg 10	Priday Red Bed, Richardson Ranch OR	5 1/4", some really dense moss. 1 Cent WITH $25 PURCHASE from the polished rocks, fossils, and cabochons pages only. Please order only one 1 cent piece per order.	$20.00	YES
	Egg 11	Priday Red Bed, Richardson Ranch OR	3" Weird tan colored "stuff". 1 Cent WITH $25 PURCHASE from the polished rocks, fossils, and cabochons pages only. Please order only one 1 cent piece per order.	1 Cent	YES
	Egg 12	Priday Blue Bed, Richardson Ranch OR	3 1/4", very nice colors for this bed. as you can see in the photo this egg has 2 faces.	$13.00	YES
	Egg 13	Secret Ridge, Buchanan, OR	3 3/4" unusual split center in this one. The bed is so old that most of the shell on almost all of the eggs has crumbled away.	$12.00	YES
	Egg 14	Friend Ranch, Ashwood, OR	3", I'm not sure but this may have been when the bed was opened sometime in the late 60s - early 70s. I'm quite sure nothing like it has come out of the bed since we reopened it in 1994. Cut flat on the bottom but it barely stands up.	$13.00	SOLD
	Egg 15	Moss Bed, Richardson Ranch, OR	3 3/4" very unique egg for this bed. There are a few mossy stringers in beautiful red and clear agate.	$14.00	YES
	Egg 16	Friend Ranch, Ashwood, OR	3 1/2", cut flat on the bottom but it barely stands up.	$12.00	YES
	Egg 17	Succor Creek, Owyhee Mountains, OR	3 1/4", from a pit I started in the early 2000s. I've never seen these colors and patterns from any other bed at Succor Creek.	$15.00	SOLD
	Egg 18	Lucky Strike Mine, Ochoco Mtns., OR	3 1/4" little beauty, I worked hard for half a day to dig these little buggers!	$10.00	YES
	Egg 19	Buchanan Old bed, Buchanan OR	3 1/2" very nice egg from this long gone bed.	$14.00	YES
	Egg 20	Priday Blue Bed, Richardson Ranch OR	2 1/4", I like the razor thin white line.	$5.00	YES
