As I shared with you here last August, I met
Deedeeite (a fractured rhyolite with silica-filling of void spaces) discoveress and
Orcutt Mineral Society member DeeDee Magri at the
Nipomo Gem & Mineral Show this year and enjoyed meeting the woman and getting to know more about Deedeeite. Following posting of my article
DeeDeeite, DeeDee Magri, & Me she was so pleased she kindly gave me a partially-cut piece of her namesake silicate that she herself had found which was a real honor. I recently had
Santa Lucia Rockhound member Galen Moyer (the same guy who polished my biconoid I shared here recently in
My Beloved Biconoid Tubes article here. I thank Galen for his wonderful work on this stone as well as on the biconoid.
