Strange material I've never seen before. Where was this thing found? Gary

I believe you mean the dark one? I know what you mean. I believe that's quartzite, but that stuff in weird in that as it weathers it gets that a really slick, glassy look to it. Seems to especially happen to stuff that has been on the surface for awhile. I used to think it was some kind of special quartzite until I went up into the mountains where the Antietan quartzite makes up the tops of the ridges. I found that outcrops exposed to sun, wind and rain were really slick and looked "special", but when I pried open a freeze crack, or broke open a piece laying around, found underneath the same old same old quartzite.
