Doesn't everyone collect rocks? A prized possession is a dish of Saharan sand a friend brought back from North Africa for me. Is the typosphere ready for a petrophile show-tell?
I've always loved rocks! Thanks for sharing these pictures of flint; I've never really seen this kind of rock before. They are beautiful and have an interesting variety of colors and configurations.
There is a lot of serpentine and quartz on the land I live on in The Woods of Northern California, as this is "Gold Country".
People pan for gold in the nearby Yuba River. I haven't searched for gold, but I can feel it vibrating under the ground.
Stone week it is. Alan seaver has a nice collection of shots of some of his collection (http://sevenels.net/gallery/main.php?g2_itemId=456) which is beautiful.
