I found these in the Ouachita Mountains Arkansas. All near a small spring coming out of the ground. I think it?s green obsidian, but haven?t found anything about it in this area. 559CC20F-D457-4373-B16E-6D1C4002481B.jpeg

No. It is glass. While obsidian does occur in green, what you have is clearly not that. Please look up “Burns green obsidian”. Along with the fluff and garbage you should be able to find some quality images of the most common green obsidian in the US.

Time for more coffee.

agreed on the glass, The tell tale signs are all there, bubbles in a piece or two really throw it into the glass direction.
