Hi there. This is a 70lb boulder that I fell in love with at a Lapidary Club show in our town. The price was right. I only paid about $50 for it, I think that was a pretty good deal? Anyway, It has quartz crystals and Druze all over it. The bottom looks like this and I'm wondering if anyone knows what this could possibly be? Close up A close up of one of the druzy patches Any thoughts? Thanks much everyone. Tammy

Thanks! I think it some sort of Agate. It's pretty solid.. and sadly it may remain a mystery! Sure is pretty tho. Tammy

I wonder if it is Pet Wood? I have only seen in person a few pieces of rough pet wood that looks like wood but then I've recently seen some pictures of Pet wood that I would never in a million years thought to be wood.
