    What an interesting problem! (smile) 

    A company here in Dallas, The Mineral Hunters, takes similar items
    and turns them into oversized display pieces. He mounts them on
    appropriately sized bases, cleans and polishes the
    bolder/rock/specimen to his liking and gets paid handsomely for his
    efforts. His clients include interior designers who are always on
    the lookout for something different for people with homes or offices
    with large spaces to decorate. Mind you, his finished pieces are
    definitely worth their asking prices -- he really is good at what he
    does. 

    No affiliation, just amazed at what I've seen. 

Betty
