Coffee Dusty? Thisis a picture of a closed - sealed - room our men just opened up. There were various skeletons, two of which were almost intact, along with a stone axe and a broken Spanish Sword. What is the green stuff that appears like moss, remember this room probably hasn't been opened since 1630's. I haven't been able to get back up to Tayopa for a while Hows the neck my friend?.

Green newbie did you find these rocks just laying on the ground or did you dig them? Great looking rocks. Interesting.

I found the ones with black quartz in a brook and the big chunks of pyrite I found on the side of a cliff in newfoundland canada where I live

Hi everyone.

We were searching in the forest and found what we assume to be bomb crater (I'm in Germany) yesterday and found a few pieces of iron around it. Some pieces were definitely iron but others seemed to be rocks. They were all picked up by the metal detector as iron.

The first picture shows a rock that is different than the rest. Lighter and somewhat black in color.

The next shows the other rocks --

Any idea what these could be that would make a metal detector go crazy?

G'd evening Matt, you certainly will as soon as they send the pictures down to me. I am the low man on the totem pole, last on the list, even though I am supposed to be supervising the operation.

Found these black pieces here in so cal in a vein of Quartz its heavy but a magnet barely sticks to it. You think its hematite? This other one is a good sized piece of Quartz with a thin layer of some sparkly green crystals?

This may be off task but, how do I get this out of this bottle?

Thanks, and I look forward to seeing them!

Hi Matt, can you say that I no longer have any fingernails? Much depends upon these findings, if true I am vindicated - although finding that trail did that basically - if not, off to the drawing board again. Long story here which cannot be posted on an 'open to the world' site.

This is some sort of clay stone that I can cruch with my fingers. I didnt notice it had shiny spots until I zoomed in on the picture.



This stone I found eroded from the hill side.

I did some research found out they used to find black tourmaline in the late 1800,s were I found these you cant really see how green they are here but theres no quartz mixed with them or hardly anything else there a little bigger than a golfball there heavy too think they could also be tourmaline and do you think they have any value. Thank you.
