I think I picked this rock up in Quartzsite. Not necessarily a local rock, could have been a vendor leftover. Am I crazy to think this rock has gold in it? A closeup Or is this some sort of weird spaceman emblem or something? ;D Jo

I'd go with the spaceman (possibly alien) emblem! ;D Looks pretty cool, maybe pyrite??? Just a wild guess on my part!

Yep, looks to me like agate with an included crystal of pyrite or marcasite. Hornitos Jasper often has pyrite and such and sometimes gold too. Don't know why material from the Quartzite area wouldn't have some pyrite too.....Mel

Maybe I should cut it out and cab it with the emblem centered....

No way I could possibly remember where I picked it up. Unless... I get Bill to hypnotize me...

Send that thing to TonyW! He has a personal relationship with the aliens.
