I did the best with my Fujifilm T555, compliments of jamesp. Here's the best optimization this point and shoot camera can achieve. What could those zeolites in this granitic pegmatite be? www.mindat.org/min-6895.htmlThat's the best guess I have, so far. I might be fooled, though. What ya'll think? With these photos...

Forgot to mention I acquired this pegmatite in southern California's Imperial valley. I only thought the mineral may be Dachiardite because I saw that the same mineral was listed from a nearby source, but not in the exact location of which this specimen was found. I took a wild guess. I really have no clue what this is, I need professional input. lol

Any of you all familiar with rutile? I think I finally solved another trivial mineral mystery. Thought you guys might be interested? Awesome stuff? Nah? Maybe you're not a mineral junkie. Oh well. I tried. Photos: magicalrocksandminerals.tumblr.com/ 2nd photo down Location is from Imperial County, CA. Older find. Off topic: Thinking about joining the Kentucky Paleontology Society and Kentucky Geological Society. Something like that. Wish me luck. See ya around the forum.
