Thread: Razorlovestones Project / Magnification Shots of Stones

goldfisch at the top
bbw - bottom two pics

Thanks for youre further more comments, right the inclusions in form of swirls, darker spots or lines do not appear on a normal BBW....

And not beeing a geologist..would you think in any way of a Sandstone talking about the Goldfisch ? You made enough pictures also of Sandstones...so what do you think....

I'll go to my friend at the end of this summer and I hope to find it out.

I have no opinion about is it a sandstone or not.

Rozsutec
is a sandstone too

This LI (album https://fotki.yandex.ru/users/beavers-net/album/444262)


doesn't look like a LI in my opinion, but it works really close to typicall LI.
And my friend found it out just by one simple look.

Some more pics i wanted to add, had some free time to add more magnification shots....

My new Coticule from Ardennes, mined last year, slurrystone (2nd enlarged pic) looks different, does anyone know which vein this could be?

Hi Sebastian,

nice to have you here at SRP.
Well, if you got the coti from Ardennes and they have not explicitely specified the layer, I would suppose, it is most probably either La Grise or La Verte, tending more to La Verte from the pictures. But only Maurice at Ardennes can give you a real qualified answer. Was it listed in the remarkable, the standard or the selected stones?
Regards Peter

I think I've also got one:

Hi Peter,
many thanks, I am also pleased to be here. Cool high informative forum here.
I bought the coticule not directly from Ardennes, got it from ebay, open_razor from poland sold it. After a request by Ardennes I was told,
"Last year all of our stones are coming from 1 vein from our new mine in Regné.
Those grey-ish lines are typical and have no influence on the honingproces."
But what vein was not mentioned.
Anyway, I have honed a sheffield razor today and am thrilled. I am pleased to have bought the coticule.
With best regards, Sebastian
