Re: Sunday's finds

Hey Chris, what county is your place in? Do they have the little nipple at the end?

Re: Sunday's finds

sandman
Sure would like to know where that rock came from, it is not one that I have ever seen around these parts.


If that rock was mine I would grind a small flat on it to look inside. Does that red run right through ?
If just an external coating, how did it survive weathering or creek tumbling?
IF it can be proven to be limestone, it might be a unique cave stone ( formed in a cave environment with
dripping water. )
Mother nature did some amazing things with mud before it became limestone.

If it's the same feature as Chris is reporting, he ought to smack a few of them open and see what the entire inside might look like. The "black" he notes might be weathered hemitite (iron) that can be a very dark rust / near black.

Re: Sunday's finds

It has a 1/4" chip in it on one side and it is red.

Maybe Chris can take pic of the ones on his ranch?

Thanks!
