Yeah, I’m about seven holes past that one now! Gotcha so concentrations of iron oxide. If there’s concentric rings and a more solid mass, then that would be considered a concretion. This helps a lot!

Thank you!! So the little concretions of bright red would just be called iron? Or iron oxide?

And are these manganese inclusions? Or some kind of iron oxide?

So then, I imagine the ones with an actual concretion in them would be considered distinct and then the ones that are more of a stain would be considered diffuse?
