![]() I found Quartz just east of Dryden, TX. and it does not seem to be a common find. I looked online and it seems like quartz is only typically found near Llano and further west in Alpine, TX..... could this be a sign of possible bigger finds in the area? ![]()

Welcome from Southern Nevada.
Minerals can get deposited from different sources. They can be formed there, or they can be deposited from glacier or flood activity. For example, a lot of the rocks found in the Midwest were deposited from a massive flood due to an ice dam break in what is now Canada. So the quartz may or may not have formed in the area or somewhere near the area.
