Whiskey Creek Jasper
Whiskey Creek Jasper was initially discovered in 2000 on the Idaho side of the Owyhees, but it wasn’t until 2021 that through a coordinated mining effort the deposit became a reality and produced enough to be introduced at the January 2023 Quartzsite PowWow. Some of the jasper has characteristics very much like orbed Black Bruneau while other has a wildly brecciated pattern; both of which display rich earth tones in oranges, yellow, reds, greens, and browns. This material is super hard and will take an exceptional polish creating impressive cabs or display pieces. The material was in high demand and quickly sold out.
