Hello, so excited I found this website. I have a "rock" that was found in the Bisti Badlands of New Mexico about 5 years ago. I "believe" it is from a volcano but wanted to ask someone with experience. Thank you in advance for your assistance!!

Mother lode?

I am a complete newb but I think I may have something. This "rock" was found while digging on family property in Tuolumne County, CA. Any insight appreciated!

Volcanic rock is less likely, however slag is also a strong candidate.
Kind of uncertain.

Thank you for your response. I thought of slag as well but I am not sure how a piece of that would make it out into the middle of the desert.

I'm not really a rock hunter I like metal preferably gold but am happy with anything not rusty. But....this rock is so unusual (for my property in central Georgia) I just am really curious as to what it is.

Hard to tell. A porphyry of some sort? Possibly diorite or Tonalite porhyry - at least one of the intermediate rocks.

Rocks.

The rust is limonite. I see what might be pyrites/sulphides.
Interesting spot.
