Scored a nice box of specimens - Tucson
The Found Dutchman replied to kat's topic in ROCKS, MINERALS and FOSSILS
Nice haul Kat... I recognize some (if not all) of those zeolites as coming from Poona, india. Very famous locality and the kid should be happy with them. -
Have a nice one Dave

Save your money. No need to send it out. The pictures are good enough. Contact your local colleges, universities and send the photos to the dept of geology. Give all the pertinent details. Someone will know what it is but it may take time.

Have a good one.

Nice specimen. I knew a guy who found a quartz crystal with a 1/8" cube gold cube imbedded right smack in the middle of the tip. Crystal itself was a little over 1/4" in diameter and perhaps 2" long. I don't know anyone who has found anything like that. It came from N. Nevada.

That's some pretty stuff and a nice haul for both of you. Some of those piece will bring $$$$ as micromounts. Congrats.

Stunning.... No other words

That is an exquisite specimen. I would guess either California or Brazil for the location., -
I'd like to know more details without having to buy the magazine. What a whopper.

That's some neat looking material. Thanks for posting. You have quite an imagination too. -
Cool metallic mineral ???
The Found Dutchman replied to pennigold's topic in ROCKS, MINERALS and FOSSILS
I wonder if that's native copper. Is it heavy for it's size? Have you done a streak test on it? http://www.rockhounds.com/rockshop/streak1.html -
My guess would be Oregon.

That's hilarious. We should probably be sending more kids overseas these days since they sound spoiled as hell. I watch TV and they all sound so petty fretting and moaning about the silliest things. Visits to third world countries can be an eye opening experience.

It's a neat slab for sure. I might see that when I'm looking out the window of a jet cruising at 30,000 ft.

I've seen various things like cows, cheeses, stone wheels, shells,etc used for currency but that cross is one of the most unusual.
