Cheshirecat 20 Posted October 20, 2019 Share Posted October 20, 2019 (edited) I find a lot of these green rocks on the beach here in Newfoundland. Not usually with quartz in it though. Can anyone tell me what they are. Edited October 20, 2019 by Cheshirecat left out a word. 1 Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Cheshirecat 20 Posted October 20, 2019 Author Share Posted October 20, 2019 Another green rock with red in it. I wonder is it granite? Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Sonja 3 Posted October 21, 2019 Share Posted October 21, 2019 Not sure if its granite but i love the red and green ones. Nice texture and turn out smooth. Does it have the sparkly veins in it? Quote Link to post Share on other sites

It would be interesting to know what that red is. Some of the green ones I find are very pitted. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
fuss 40 Posted October 21, 2019 Share Posted October 21, 2019 On the second rock the red mineral looks to be K-feldspar, green could be epidote. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
