Hi Bob and all!

When I think slickenside, I think of a polished surface where something
rubbed on the surface to polish it. I don't see this in any of the
pictures. My samples do not have this....so I guess I will have to just
buy some more!!! Very interesting. What do you guys suppose did this?
It would not have had anything to do with the break up, I suppose.
