🔎 UNIDENTIFIED What I guess is ore at old iron mine.

Found this at an abandoned iron ore mine. The rock is the heaviest chunk of ore I’ve ever run across, like it’s almost pure iron already? Anyone know what is in those pockets, or even exactly what type of rock it might be?

It does look like some iron ore (notice the rust spot) with some crystals formed up inside, it will make a nice specimin to put on a shelf. Not sure what type of crystals they are but you can make a guess by counting how many sides the crystal has then look up crystal formations to determine the possible crystals.

They look like quartz/chalcedony in pockets growing there. Nice.
