Way cool!

Very cool specimen.

 

[tamrock]

My guess is the center has maybe some gypsum or calcite crystallization going on. What ever it is, it's a very interesting specimen.

I've seen a lot of Jesuit stone but this is a new one. It's represents the dragon. There are a few symbols on it. You will be able to see the messageon it using light from an angle. Nice find

Well I do not know much about rocks, but I do know that you should not drop that one on your foot. It may cause discomfort.

 

[Blak bart]

Its a smore !!

Igneous rock with a cavity where calcite crystals grew. Various ways that could have happened. Very nice specimen...

 

[Calgarychef]

I was wondering when the Jesuit angle would come out....must be an interesting world to live in imagining that every rock is a Jesuit sign.

 

[hvacker]

Downright scary. If a little vinegar is put on the white stone and it fizzes it's probably calcite
I would like to see this re posted in the rock forum further down.

It must be hard for some not to be able to see the hidden world around you. It has the words Jesuit priest on in two places in one picture. Then again you might be a sentinel. That stone is a good example of their work. Hidden in plain sight. There are a lot of us that can see what those can't. It takes a certain way of looking at things. It's by no means imagination. It's education that doesn't come from college. It comes from being in a field they know nothing about. Meanly being out in the field is where you will get it from. This kind of stuff is of a group of men that were here over a hundred years. There were others before them. These stones tell a story from one of the most read book in history. The Bible.

Most naysayers are probably from Geological society. Sure you know what a stone is made from. But you may be missing the real story. Not all stones are Jesuit or Templar or even any other order. I can go any museum and find their work That doesn't mean they will believe it. Some can't think outside the text books. I not talking about anyone on here but if that shoe fits well what can I say.

I can't say I am a Geologist, but I have some knowledge. It looks to me as if the vein has filled and then re-dissolved during its lifetime, which would fit with a Calcite or Gypsum intrusion. It looks more Gypsum to me. A few answers might help:
1. Whereabouts was it found initially? Was it in a river or the sea when found? Or exposed to rain?
2. How hard is the grey rock? Does it scratch with steel, or a finger nail?
3. Have you tried the drop of vinegar on the white crystals yet?

However it got to where it is, it looks really cool!

Natural split stone with stalactites and stalagmites( minerals from water flowing over and into cavity of stone) that were formed over many hundreds of years. IMO Nice and unusual find.

 

[Rawhide]

Im with backwoodsbob that anything that unusual is at least a object out of place. Now most of us walk right by stuff like this every day. I have seen odd stones placed to mark a area. Now Im surprised a few of the prospectors didnt pipe up here. That right there is a natural gold catcher. One of the many things the Spanish would look for when hunting gold was to find where the quartz met the stone. Now this may not be quartz, but its a very good example of what I look for when gold hunting in quartz. Now for marks on the stone. I have seen worked stones and would not give this stone a second look. But I am interested to learn the mark that Bob considers a priest mark. I have found ink stains of priest on walls and would love to see what Bob has found.

When dealing with Jesuit related stuff things are not what they seem. At the top right side is the biggest words. It says cave of the Dove. The whole stone is about the cave. In the middle of the stone the white area. There are little effigies that are hard to see. If one knows the signs and symbols of the treasure code. You should be able to see the symbols on the stone. They like to overlap a lot making it harder on untrained eyes. There at the area where this stone was found. There will be more signs to see. If it was so easy to make out their stuff anyone would be able to find it. One of the ways to make out their name is to look for es together or it. They would put the J and P on top of each other. On other stones I also look for their hat. It comes in different ways but it a easy way to tell. This stone is different from any I've seen but I've seen all kinds. Don't limit yourself to just stones. They left their mark on anything they could. There are other orders that were out there. There were two different groups on a site I'm working now. They use the Bible for their code book as well. Most priest carried one. All they sites have a story from the Bible. One might see a phrase like So Be It. That is a clue. When you cross reference it you will be told something. I will tell you that if you find that phrase. It will be at the bottom of a hill.
Happy Hunting and may God Bless you all.

Never seen anything like it. Guaranteed I would have brought it home if I'd found it. Be interested to find out where you found it, any back story, not specific, just in river or on a hill side in what state.

 

[creekhunter]

Probably washed out of a cave, I have seen many like that underground.
