WHATS COOLER???

This is Black Opal under a microscope at 250 magnification. This is one of my favorites one. It looks like scales and and acrylic paint mixed together.

Hello fellow Rockheads 🪨🙂, If you love rocks in any capacity, this is your new community. We’re here to share anything and everything rocks, because rocks are awesome. Write a brief intro about yourself and how long you’ve had an interest, your collection, and anything else you want people to know. ROCKS ROCK! Here’s a template to help you get started: Hi my name is ____ and I love rocks. Ive been looking at/collecting for ____. I have (number of rocks in your possession at the moment). My favorite thing(s) about rocks is ____. I’ll start: Hi my name is Paul and I love rocks. I’ve been picking up and looking at them for as long as I can remember. I probably have thousands (I’ve never done a full count) between my childhood home and my current apartment in Brooklyn, NY. My favorite thing about rocks is no matter how mundane, each and every one has a fascinating story of churning through millions upon millions of years of earth movement and depositing. You pick up a rock and you’re often holding something that was around at the time of the dinosaurs. Also they are stunningly beautiful and endlessly unique. No two are exactly the same and I absolutely love that.
