Why I enjoy cutting open rocks, just to see what's inside... Local creek find, thought this might be a jasper/agate wood replacement (though there's not much of that on the west side of the cascades) But just looks like some jasper mix.
It's a bit redder/oranger in real life (cellphone) but I thought the little translucent parts were clear agate, until I noticed the water clear from those spots quickly. Seems like they look like some sort of silvery metallic grainy substance under the loop. Any ideas what they might be? Just curious. Sorta scattered pockets throughout, but bands in the upper maroon part in the last photo...
(Still waiting on pbucket to drop the ax on me..)
