Found this cool rock gave it to my girlfriend a couple years ago. I figured that you guys might enjoy it.

Think it's worth anything?

Hello
X marks the spot and yes that is a interesting rock sample as it is. You could have the rock scanned by a falcon type of metal detector along what appears to be calcite or quartz lines to see if there is any values. It is unusual sample of veins.
 

No thanks I already have a falcon I'll just crush and pan it. Actually kidding probably shouldn't do that.

Makes a better collection peice.

Yes it is best kept in tacked as a collection piece. Thanks for posting the picture.
 

Looks like a combination of selenite, the brown matrix, and calcite. Cool piece though :)
 

Its actually two quarts veins within a high iron content rock. I found it while sluicing .
 

I'm not a mineral man but I know iron and quarts.
 

I'm glad you know quarts and don't take this wrong, but I think the word you want is quartz.
 

Selenite is not brown.

Looks like a contact with Granodiorite And Greenschist with a high Iron content
