I'm guessing it's something like this, but I'm not sure because you would have to lay the rock in the mold and pure the melted brass over and I'm not sure that would work with all stones. So I'm also still trying to figure out. www.cchobby.dk/tin-smykker-i

I used to live in Ojai and hound the beaches at the Ventura rivermouth. Found a lot of similar stuff although the poppy jasper is much commoner further north towards Santa Barbara and Gaviota. Forst tow are probably banded sandstone or if more conpressed and replaced by silica, quartzite. Lots of that in many colors in those gravels. #4 is an agate nodule. There are agate beds inn the volcanics south of Ventura and east of Camarillo and out at Somis. Your stone probably came down Callegues Creek or the big creek through Somis and was transported by longshore drift. #5+6 possible andesite from the volcanic deposits south of Camarillo. #7 plain ole brown jasper or chert #8 and 10 quartzite. Watch for good fossil agatized whalebone, good brecciated jasper and sinter too. All those are great cutting material....Mel I found a whalebone!!! I Think Sabre52 [/

He is easy to find, just listen for a guy trying to sell sand to an Egyptian. Well that's what I make a Living of, so it would be easy to spot one of "my own kind" ;0)

It's killing me that I don't know what it is I'm finding since I know that I have to choose a few pieces to keep at the end of our trip. So I'm hoping some one could help with some ID. We are currently at the Ventura Beach CA and I found these today, i really loves the patternes. 1. Unknown but possible sandstone 2.
3. 4.Think this is an agat? 5. Dark red/Brown ? 6. Green one 7. Red with White thin lines 8. Black and White stuff 9. This one I know is a poppy Jasper and I'm so happy I found it. 10. The last one and it has really Strange colours, looks like red/green/blue but it's not so strong in the colours Really hoping someone can help with ID since we are staying here for a couple of days and i want to go and find more of the good stuff. Mona

Looks like there are many hours of fun and features to test in that camera. Just bought a Panasonic lumix zs40 while we were on vacation but I wished I had bought on waterproofed. Mona

Staked Photos has normally been used in landscape and cityscape photographing, you normally load it into Photoshop and it automatic eliminates moving objects. Eg tourists at busy attractions. Not sure what editing program you use but I can recommend Photoshop.

Sorry for absence, been driving through Texas and hit NM last Night. Thanks for all of the answers, it made me a bit wiser. In Denmark we only collect rocks at the Beach and what you se is what you get, so it has been a bit surprising to find that the rocks here look so different. I'll keep studing, it is quite facinating. We are in Deming and Will be hitting Pony Hills and rock hound State park + 1 or 2 rock shops today ;0)))

What is the geological reason for most of the Stones here in the States have a kind of a Crust/different on the outside than the inside?
