🔎 UNIDENTIFIED Cool Rock Needs a Name!

Found this in the creek while gold prospecting. I hit it with my rock hammer and it split in two. It's the size of a softball and has a cool quartz "eye." Any idea what it is? Thanks!

I disagree. Looks more like Pebbles.

Nice, so bauer wins with Fred. There is/was a volcano in the Susquehanna River(PA) not too far away, so maybe a quartz geode of was just rolling in a creek to get the round shape. The rusty minerilization gets me excited for gold in the area. I dug a 5 ft. hole near it and I was surprised to hit blue clay. I put on my gloves and worked the clay in the pan. The clay was super tough to pan, but no gold. I filled in my hole and left. Should I go back? Silver possibly or just lead making it blue? Is it worth it to mess around with super tacky blue clay?

I think that volcano is called Mount Imaginary.

I think you may know everything pal, but you are misinformed. Look up Garrett Island volcano and then go find some nails with your metal detector.
