Hi fiftiesrock, I don't know what they are but you found some really cool looking rocks for just fifteen minutes of looking.

They look really neat! I love those road cuts there in TX! I can see a bunch of flint in the first pic but I really have no idea on the others...Maybe Sabre52 will chime in and let us know what you have there. Oh, your finger rock looks like a cartoon baby seals face to me (looking towards the left) Fran

The first big pic is wood. First picture, bottom left, tan and brown colored is flint. The rest are good old Texas jasper and quartz.
Please use this board for specimens and post your finds under Member Photographs. Thanks!
Curt

Very cool finds! I'm tumbling one of those finger rock type flint nodules right now and it's coming out really cool looking. Cool that you have more jasper and wood in your area. What town are you close to? Mostly flint and fossils here......Mel

Hey FiftiesRock, That's a mighty haul for such a short visit! You did great! I love collecting new stuff out "in the field" and there are always new places to stop and look, seems that you found a rich spot there! I like the Red Jasper the best, but I am biased ;D You should get some lovely tumbles or cabs from them if you polish. I like the Pet-Wood "as-is" though, nice job Buddy! Cheers, Sparkles.
