Can anyone assist me in identifying this rock that I found? It wasn’t buried in the dirt at all and wasn’t very dirty whenever I found it. It is extremely magnetic and seems to boast some small yellow greenish crystals in the most magnetic part of the rock when examined up close. I even used a...

Please help me identify if this indeed has been carved by man and if so what period? It is located in NW Georgia. It looks just like museum wooly.

Does anyone have any guesses as to what this is? I'm not sure where it actually came from so I can't ask a shop/check a shop's website or anything of that sort. Any help is greatly appreciated!

I found this on a beach in Greece when I was a kid, and have lately been wondering what it is. I can't seem to find close enough pictures online. Any ideas?

My mother in law recently passed at 96 years old. As a child of the depression she never three anything away . I found these in a little baggie. Any idea on what they are?

Hello! This rock has been in my family for as long as I can remember. We always called it the “brain rock” when we were kids. It was my grandma’s and she always said it was a geode. That would be awesome but I have my doubts. I would just break it open but if it’s not a geode then I’d rather...

Please help! A year ago I moved to Maine because I love beachcombing for seaglass. However, now I find myself obsessed with rocks, and I can’t stop bringing them home. Unfortunately I know little about them. I have read online, and looked at pictures and I’m just not getting the answers I...

I'm currently taking Physical Geology course. Please help me to identify these 2 rocks: A & B. *Both rock are cracked open. I am sure that rock A is a metamorphic rock & rock B is the protolith of rock A. But what are the names of the two rocks? Overall, my questions are: 1. What is the...

I recently was metal detecting the banks of a creek near Deadwood SD, an area known for gold, when my detector found four rocks that all registered as metal they read out as 40 to 45 on the target scale and a 0 on the ground phase. The rocks are silverish in color and metallic kinda like schist...

I usually hang out in the "North American artifact forums" but I found this interesting rock near the Sierra Ancha Wilderness in Arizona and would appreciate any help in identifying it. My first thought was that the rock was painted but the red "pattern" (if I can call it that) looks like it...

Was out detecting the beach the other day using the Nokta FORS CoRe. Target ID 44 on the Nokta. Will not pick up on V3I and hit's on pinpointer!

I found this rock the other day, thinking it is dolomite? it weighs about 4 or 5 pounds and it has lots of clear crystals in it. I was wondering if anyone here knows anything about it? I am looking for a value of it as well. Thank you in advance

As I walked past this, i thought it was a monster turtle! Anyway, i think this may just be a unique variant of what my parents always call "kettle rocks" or "widow makers" but im unsure. Y'alls input would be greatly appreciated!

I found this Rock about 20 years ago when I was a child in an area in Pennsylvania where they were digging up a foundation for a new house. I have always wondered what kind of rock it is, but could never seem to find any good leads. I would appreciate any help.
