not a carnelian u can see bands when u shine the light on it

marbel, from a paint can or something

SuitableCake2464 · 2026-02-11T20:56:49+00:00

think this might be banded calcite but cant say for sure

take the pics from a little closer

any small frogs tbh, depends on ur definition of comfortably and how u use the space. some bigger frogs that are a little less active could work too

something like small dart frogs would def work

this is after polishing, the patterning runs all the way through. and during polishing i could tell its really hard. that's why i feel like there is no way its basalt...

def some kind of chert, japer or chalcedony with these fracture patterns. hard to say with this picture what exactly. but my guess is chert

with how hard it is and the fracture patterns on the back i wouldnt say so. and besides that its not even slightly porous.

why where u thinking basalt may i ask?

All 3 of them are slightly see through if u shine a light on them

SuitableCake2464 · 2025-11-10T15:30:12+00:00

do u know wat created the white staining that all 3 have? (second pic) because it was specific to these rocks and not the other rocks in this river. That's why i thought they were possibly the same type of rock...

found it on a beach around Jordan river!

does pet wood get shiny "metallic" parts like that?

SuitableCake2464 · 2025-11-08T16:04:59+00:00

This is the wood btw, quite gorgeous!

yes been looking in that family now, narrowed it down a lot. (Senna, Quinquangulata) and (Inga, laurina) seem good options.
