i have found in a river bed a green stone with six sides.
to my surprise, these stones seem to grow because they increase in size and display 'budding' form of growth.
the top end of the stones tapers but its 'root' is attached to another rock.
the upper portion of the stone looks like a glass filled with green substance but its lower portion is dirty cream in color.

if these stones have value, i can gather around a hundred kilos.

O.M.G.___ Sounds like the pod people are back. I don't know what they are but can you post a pic, I would really like to see what they look like. You don't live near a Nuke plant do you?

Kaloy,
I have found green stones in rivers before. Peridot (olivine)..
they weren't 'budding', tho. Just small green stones. I'd love to see a pic of yours...
sounds interesting...:)

I've been mining, buying, selling, cutting, appraising, setting, stones since 1964 and never heard of a green stone that grows,

Six sided usually means beryl, or that group, maybe tourmaline,

Only once did i hear of a gem that grew, but that was from an Indian Indian who had too many beers.

Where's the pics to prove it, before and after would be nice
