Semi'Precious Stones Attract
Many People to Bend Region
New Industry Found Flourishing Here; Strange
"Thunder Kjfgs" of Central Oregon are Unique
Llttlo known tn Central Oregon
people other tiian those closely In
touch with I he earth sciences, there
1 an industry in Bend, the cutting
and polishing of stone, that annual
ly attnrcU peoplo here not only from
distant state, but from foreign coun
tries. Hcgistralion book of Bend
gem cutter bear the name of eml
nreclous stone' collecUir from Paris,
France; Rome. Italy, and from a city
in Switzerland.
People interested in the science of
gems and in the interesting stones
gathered from the aged hills of Cen
tral Oregon are not coming to Bend
by mere chanc they are finding
their way Into the Deschutes coun
try the Ochnco hills, the "highdes

certain type of rocks, especially the
strange "thunder eggs," found in this
area are unique in the entire United
Slate. Several Bend gem cutter

in the United Stales, but in a number
of foreign countries.
Central Oregon obsldlon, general
ly known as volcanic glass, Is In
demand even in the distant orient,
where one firm manufactures the
black rock Into miniature Buddhas.
Of all stones gathered from the
ancient formation of the interior
country, probably none receives the
interest given the unique "thunder
eggs." Legend says that those found
in the Madras country were tossed
into the Central Oregon skies and
scattered over the old plains by a
terrific eruption of Mount Jefferson
In ancient any, but mineralogists are
more conservative jn their various
theories as to the origin of these
interesting nodules. Cut in two and
polished thunder eggs" of the Mad
ras hllb provide pictures of sea
scapes and landscapes, and there are
those who believe that the sea views
are nature's "photographs" of the
ocean thai rolled over Central Ore
gon In paleozoic times and cretaceous
epochs. The displays of "thunder
eggs" found In Benu are said to be
unsurpassed In the United States,
Petrified woods, especially those
found on the "high desert" and the
old formation that reach under the
Ochnco hills, are also of great interest
to mineral collectors, primarily be
cause of their brilliant colors. Many
of these woods are said to be repre
sentative of the rain belt forests
.dominated by sequoias, that flourish
ed In this part of the world in re
mote ages.
Central Oregon agates are widelj

Once found in great abundance In
the Ashwood-AnteioDC area, crystal

One of Central Oregon's most
