Rainbow Colors!  Kona Dolomite Tumbling rough!  1lb Lot of Kona

KONA DOLOMITE FROM MARQUETTE COUNTY MICHIGAN

Some of these definitely could be slabbed on a trim saw for multiple pieces per gemstone.

Some of these do have the traditional salmon pinks and even mooseblood (red feldspar).
Amazing range of colors and subtle gradations of shades.

I have scooped these myself directly from the quarry.  There is a very limited supply of these and this is the first time in 10 years I have been able to get a mix like this from the quarry.

Over 900lbs of this size now available!

This is the ONLY place in the world that this type of Dolomite is found.....very rare, and hard to find!

2 Billion years old....some of the oldest rock available on the planet!

HUGE RANGE OF COLORS in these Tumble/Cabbing Size!
Salmon Pinks, Greens, Aquamarine, Creamy White, Reddish Brown, Oranges, Greys, Chocolates, and some with Moose Blood! (Red Feldspar crystals)

Kona is 3.5-4 hardness scale, which is Very Easy to carve, shape, cab and tumble.  Please refer to outside resources on tumbling 3.5-4 hardness scale rocks and minerals.  If you are tumbling these won't need very long in stages 1 and 2.

Nice color variations and banding here and some real character.  You can see the individual layers of 2 Billion year old algae layers in different colors.

These are all impacted by the underground super-heated pressures from long ago.

Approximate irregular dimensions of 2.5"-3+" and irregular thickness.  
There is approximately 3-4 pieces per lb.  
We will always round up where you will have more than 1lb for this order.

Listing is for  1lb of XXL Kona Tumbling/Cabbing sized rough.

You will receive a 1lb lot of Kona Dolomite randomly scooped. These rocks are scooped at random and every lot may not have every color of dolomite listed above. Larger lots have a greater chance of having more variety due to the increase in number of stones in larger lbs lots.  Stones in photos are representative of the ones you will receive.

These are not polished with all photos taken wet in the late afternoon sun in the UP.

Kona will take a nice shine and polish, and also looks great as a more matte finish if you like.  Due to the lower silica content, these will not be super glossy like an agate.

Please see photos for more details.  As with all rocks there may be fractures or imperfections and sold as-is with no returns.

Named after the Kona Hills south of Marquette County, Michigan where it is found. Kona Dolomite is an ancient rock in which formations of fossil stromatolite (blue-green algae) occur. The stone is between 2.1 to 2.2 billion years old. These stromatolite formations are from some of the first life on earth. These fossil formations are found in the lower eras of the Middle Precambrian Period.

Because of the great age, and due to the many trace minerals present, kona dolomite can be found in a wide variety of shades including pink, brown, yellow, cream, red and orange with shades of brown, cream, gray and black mottling, banding and lacing.  BUT KONA DOLOMITE IS ONLY FOUND IN ONE PLACE IN THE WORLD......MICHIGAN's UP!

I have over 6000lbs of slab sized Kona chunks, and several hundred slabbed pieces too.....let me know if you would like any and I am glad to put together a custom order based on your needs.  Slabbing sizes of 2lbs - 25lbs.

Please let me know if you would like a large bulk order, and we would be glad to put one together.
Happy to make custom orders and have several in the past of 10-30lbs....and can save you $$$$.
