Hey it's a new season! Finally got a chance to get dirty. So was up poking a round by west creek and found these unusual smokeys, if I'm not mistaken correct me if I'm wrong but tourmalnated smokey quartz.

Sweet find Yotafly!! Actually it looks like a piece of "rutilated" smoky quartz. Very cool stuff!!
