At this point I don't even have a good guess Goldlane.
Any more info on these? Where were they found? (general area) They look cool! -------------------- Thankful member of COLORADO PROSPECTOR CLUB

I was digging for gold and found these. O thought they were interesting but have no idea what they are. I did find a lapidary as well. |

Cool rocks! Is really hard to tell by just a pic but when I looked at the first one I thought Epidote mass with Quartz because of the green and white bands.

Just an impression, but it looks like a sea sponge or coral where the carbonate has been replaced with chert. Geologists luv polysyllabic words so they would call it chertification.
Does the rock ring like a bell when tapped by a hammer? |
