I HAVE NEVER SEEN A QUARTZ LIKE THIS

[johnsonconnie34]

Yesterday, I dug up a huge quartz rock, When I got the rock home, I started rinsing the rock off. Small bits of rock came our of the cracks, I have not seen a quartz rock like this one. I been prospecting for two years, but this rock is so big and the tiny rocks that come out of it, are so beautiful Here you will seem the bits of rock, I don't even know what they are.

Looks like some hydrothermal quartz which is good if you are gold prospecting because gold often occurs in it.

Looks like central texas quartz. Greaser may be right, might contain some gold. The stuff here has a bit, but you couldn't get rich on it. Other places---YES...Good hunting...

There is a fair amount of mineralization in your specimen. Some looks to be mica's and some looks like possible pyrites. Coloration is good. Overall its a piece of massive quartz. The quartz itself is "rotting", a term meaning that its breaking down, and as it degrades it'll break up along the fractures in the stone as well as the other minerals degrading in between the crystals. You may find some good crystals nearby seeing as some of the bits have nice faces on them.
