Hi guys,
I'm new here. Found this forum while doing research trying to identify these rocks. Hi All!
These rocks are tan on the outside with black/dark blue/purple on the inside. Very heavy (what rock isn't lol). One is about 6 oz, one is 3 oz, and one is 1.1 oz.
I live in east Tennessee, in a hilly region surrounded by mountains a few miles away. I'm in the county outskirts of my nearest city. But just wanted to give you an idea of region. I'm in the mountains but not IN the mountains.
All the guesses I've gotten from people who have looked at these is Sapphire, and one guy said maybe Black Quartz.
Thank you SO much for any help.
P.S. I can take more detailed pics if needed, just tell me what type of lighting, etc and I'll do it.
