Hi Randy,
American Pumice still makes "Navajo Processed Pumice", their east coast
distributor is Eastech, 800-423-7423. For grade menu & chemical analysis,
call plant (now under some other name) at 800-527-7315.
What are the desired effects? For $8 per 50lb bag, I'm curious enough to
experiment. Hope this helps.

There is an article in Claytimes dealing with some of the uses
of volcanic ash as a glaze ingredient. It was two issues ago,
I think, or perhaps three.
