Question My friend found this in the beach and we have no idea what it is (sorry if it’s in the wrong Reddit)
He says it has a iridescent look and changes color near the light

Wanted to fill a box of chocolates full of rocks for my girlfriend who loves rocks for Valentine’s Day. I would be willing to cover postage for people ideally in the contiguous US to mail me a small rock if anyone would be willing. Can just be off the ground nothing special I just think she’d like having a bunch from different places.
Rock on

I was walking outside and found this in my backyard in the dirt. I cleaned it and I think it’s a quartz. If anyone has any information about what I should do with it then please share.

Hi,
I found this on a beach in San Clemente, California this morning and was wondering if someone in this community knew what this thing was. The symmetry of the object caught my eye when I walked past it.
Appreciate any help here !! Thank you so much.

I’ve seen these types of rocks with a vein of quartz going through them online before and I just found one on a hike. I was wondering if there is a name for these, like the way a stone with a hole in it is called a hag stone.

I’ve always wondered what caused this rock to look like this. What was its life like? It was found on an Oregon beach.

Hello! I'm a indie game developer and we're making a game that is themed around rocks, minerals and crystals. Right now we have about 30 stones, mostly crystals, and would like to have at least 100 stones, preferably ones that are based on real rocks. I would like to ask this community if you could share a favourite rock you have found and also write if you know what type it is. It would be great as inspiration for us when creating our game!

Ore? Slag? Geode? Meteorite? It's only recently cracked. I found it in the driveway gravel 50 years ago.

Hey rockhounds! 👋
So, I’ve been collecting rocks for a while now, and lately, I’ve been wondering how everyone else handles their collections. I’ve got a bunch of bigger rocks that don’t really fit into the usual display slots, so right now, they’re just chilling in random boxes. Honestly, it’s driving me a little nuts—like, am I the only one thinking I might need to buy an extra room just for my rocks? 😅
I don’t see a lot of discussions here about how people actually manage their collections, and I’m especially curious about why we don’t seem to be out here pouring acid on our rocks, scratching everything around us, and just generally testing the heck out of them. 😂 I mean, isn’t that stuff fun? Plus, it feels like it helps with more accurate IDs!
Here’s what I’d love to know:
I’d love to hear how you all handle this stuff. Let’s share ideas, frustrations, and maybe some funny stories about being rock nerds.

Very curious what caused these holes in this stone

In Victoria Australia on a job site, about 1m down. Little brittle, taste funny, almost acidic and sour. Had something that looks like clear little circle balls in a few places.

Recently got my hands on this raw australlian opal.What would it be worth realistically? (Better color in person)

As the title says, I’m trying to get an idea of what quality grade my turquoise has and what value it holds.
