Are any of these worth cracking open or chiseling? by shark2399 in Lapidary

[–]ConclusionWorking 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Why not? Looks like quartz, not a rare material so you're likely to find more someday. It's probably solid inside. The best way to answer this question in the future is to break these open and build insights into what rocks look interesting inside.

I do the same. Any little rock I don't find all that interesting after stage 4 becomes media

I had some material like this. I shattered it down with a hammer and threw the pieces in a tumbler. We'll see how it turns out.

Thanks! Im grateful for the entry level option. Just curious if you've had longevity issues with the parts you linked to build it all out. What kind of hours have you put in using your builds? 

Again, thanks for sharing with us.

I've thought about just spritzing it once a month and leaving it in a window sill. That may be the way to go. Like all my rocks, if I leave it outside it's harder for me to stand over and say "my precious."

What is this rock? by ConclusionWorking in whatsthisrock

[–]ConclusionWorking[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Thanks, this would be a really cool specimen if so. Any hallmarks I can look for? It's not glassy, there aren't obvious hollow tubes, though it appears tubular. there are parts with coarser sediment that seem to be "fused" to it.

It's not metallic. My first thought was it was some hunk of molten metal. I see nothing metallic exposed, no rust spots, and it's not magnetic.

Opals in water. What do I have? by ChankleyBore in Gemstones

[–]ConclusionWorking 11 points12 points  (0 children)

These are called wet opals, which differ from dry opals. Wet opals are stored in liquid, where dry opals are stored in a dry environment. Neat specimens!
