I was rock hunting in a creek about 60-70 miles west of St Louis found some geodes and what looks like a chunk of smoked glass. What is it?

Probably obsidian.

Since you seem to be interested in identifying rocks, ill ask you if you can identify mine
The thing is, im pretty sure ive already identified it as preseli, or bluestone, but rheres something about it thats different from the ones I see when I search for it on the Internet, and ive just been wondering why that is... any thoughts or should I find someone else to ask lolView attachment 1467937View attachment 1467940

I recently figured out that this was actually serpentine

I found this egg shaped crystal looking rock. Part of it was cracked and missing. After soaking it in warm water and dawn dish soap I discovered this olive green textured looking crystal inside. Been soaking this beautiful rock for over a month. Soaking and rinsing. After drying out, I looked at it under a magnifying glass. There's some silver dust looking stuff by th green textured looking crystals. Looking closer there seems to be gold looking dust sprinkled around. Any clue what this is?

 

[ProtoXG]

Any idea what this is, I also have smaller ones that are whit and a pink. Found in creek in decature county west tn

 

[Clay Diggins]

Probably obsidian.

Not in St Louis unless it was put there by a visitor. It's apparently a piece of broken smoked plate glass. It's flat on one side.

 

[ProtoXG]

OK I've gotten pictures of all the Rocks I have found so far, I believe they are all the same kind but different colors, found in decature county tn, it's south west tn. If anyone has any ideas of what these are I would appreciate it.

Many many eons ago south of St. Louis Misery there was a large volcano in the St. Francis Mtns. . It is shown on the Geological maps of Misery. BUT Clay could be right on the question of "somebody may have left it there".......
