[Rockhounds] Newly published Agate and Jasper book

[VevaBailey at aol.com]

Thank you Kreigh, for the info. 
The book is on the way!!!
Now another question for the list.
I want to purchase some testing equipment, specific gravity, polariscope,  
refractometer, etc. 
Who would the best vendor for this equipment?
I am on a limited budget, so I must get as much for my money as I can. 
My sister was out walking and brought home a piece of black, very black  
rock, it isn't lava or glass like, so I would like to test it to see if it is  
onyx, jet or jade. 
Here in Nevada, it can could be any one of these stones. I haven't  tried 
to cut it yet, so I don't know how hard it would be to cut.  
Any help will be greatly appreciated.
