BIGGS PICTURE JASPER! NEW VEIN uncovered in Oregon 

Kate and Jim head to Biggs, Oregon to explore a newly uncovered vein of Biggs Picture Jasper. The fascinating gemstone has been unavailable for many years, as most of the material is on private land - but recent roadwork uncovered new veins, which have been rapidly collected by intrepid rockhounds. In this video, Jim successfully hews two HUGE chunks of the jasper from the wall, while Kate is fooled into collecting a big pile of basalt. No worries, though - there's still PLENTY of jasperlicious goodness!
