Ok, so I'm back in the Caribbean again an now I'm going to post pics of the ROCK that is every where! After my hours and months of studying can anyone help identify?? , , , , It's a volcanic Island of course with so many metamorphic minerals that I get tired of chasing rabbits down a hole looking for rare minerals that I get lost and quit having fun along the way.

I would expect it to be a Lahar a type of conglomerate formed from a volcanic eruption with a mixture of fragmented rock, mud and water.

Oh Mel So sorry to hear you are stranded on a tropical island. Maybe you can paint a face on a volleyball or something. Hope you find plenty to drink... Craig
