Rock?

I'm not a rock guy, though I do have a piece of gravel embedded in my right thigh from a bicycle accident on a gravel road when I was 10 or 12.

But that's a very nice looking whatever it is!

Looks like eroded agate with bandings, but no expert here. Strange and cool looking rock you have.

I moved this request from Today's Finds! over to Geological > Rocks/Gems for more exposure.

Bill is on the right track. It's quartz/chalcedony veins cutting a softer material. The softer material weathers more easily and thus the current look is achieved.

Thanks Eu_citzen, I try to educate myself with some readings during the winter. In fact, I read so much about geology, rock tumbling, history, prospecting and other stuff I never gave much time to plan my 2017 season for relics. :BangHead: I will hunt in parks this summer and for some river rocks.

Thanks to all that had interest in my rock and after going nuts trying to find out myself, I sure do appreciate your time and knowledge. Thank you. Thank you!!!!
