Recommended Posts

Found these flat orage/red rock pieces just outside Kodachrome state Park on a ridge near Chimney Rock. Flat pieces, with the orange swirled fingerprint like texture on both sides and milky clear quartz layer like a Geode in middle layer. Any ideas what makes a pattern like that?20180407_141013.thumb.jpg.d1af559d674a357a52609613ae08b1c9.jpg

Seems like something @ynot or @abyssunder would know.

Tis a purty vug!

Welcome to the Forum. :)

I don't think I have ever seen red beekite! 

Very neat little specimen.

This is a very unusual beekite specimen; I'd hang onto it!

Extraordinary to say the least.

To top it off it's small enough to hold in your hand!

I would go back and examine the area more thoroughly for more of this!
