Looks like a geode to me. One of the rock hounds on here will know for sure.

Looks interesting, you should definately post this in the geological forum, they know a ton about this stuff. I'm sure they would have some info about this stuff.

The straw-green crystals might be clinozoisite, a form of epidote.

i cant seem to find a geological forum, have already put it in the gem and rock without much of a response. the geophysics forum doesnt seem to be used for specimen id.
