I found a quartz vein and cave on my hike yesterday.

Looks more like calcite. it does not have the clarity of quartz. Is the cave in Pa. or Md.? I am a cave guy.

I guess my future as a geologist just went down the drain lol. It's in PA.

I wouldn't say that. It looks like milky quartz to me. Milky quartz is very common in southern York County, Pa.

All I know is that it's very solid, bent my rock hammer after a few swings.
