[rockcrazy]

Hi all, I am new to this site. I have been a rock collector for as long as I remember. I have many rocks in my collection that I need help identifing. I wish I had payed closer attention in the Earth science class I took in high school. ...lol
Here is one of the rocks my husband found in our woods in Portage Michigan.

Banded jasper, butter scotch and red, is my guess. If you found it in or near a stream or water way the rounding is from that source. In the woods well away from water ways its possible its from a glacial deposit or very old water way.

Thank you for the reply. It was not found by water. We have found a couple of indian artifacts in the same area, an arrow head and 2 fire starter stones. Wondering if it's something to do with that.

Hehh could be you picked up someone elses rock collection or maybe it was taken into that area because they thought to make use of it as a tool. I don't see any wear marks or signs of tooling but you never know. People will often pick things up just because it looks nice
