DPS Ammonite Posted September 27, 2016 Share Posted September 27, 2016 Wow! Does it fluoresce? My goal is to leave no stone or fossil unturned.

Darktooth Posted September 27, 2016 Share Posted September 27, 2016 Nice! But what the heck are you going to do with that! I like Trilo-butts and I cannot lie. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
PRK Posted September 28, 2016 Author Share Posted September 28, 2016 Guess I'll just have to whack it with my sledge, and because of calcite cleavage, I'll have a thousand little pinks that look just like the big pink. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Its kind of neat the way it is. Some type of Zen meditation piece. If you whack it....what if every fragment then grows into a big one? And the cycle continues! The Calcite Apocalypse.

Khyssa Posted October 3, 2016 Share Posted October 3, 2016 I think it would make a nice display stand for a skull or a nice big fossil of some sort. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
