Ochre
Pocket.
A pocket of ochre breaks into powder under the edge of a stone. The small heap beside it is brighter than the slab.

Approximate colour previewsGrinding Stone
Collection notes
A seam of yellow pigment.
Grinding loosens a surprising yellow from the stone. Coarser fragments retain a darker red-brown edge, a useful way to frame the powdered colour on a page.
Set a pigment sample label in Grinding Stone on Sifted Sand. Give Yellow Seam a wide field beside a narrow Ferric Crumb edge.
