Just sharing because this rock makes me laugh. Reminds me of a Gorilla face, with sparkly eyes.1yr ⋅ Yeahicare_Ido ⋅ r/rockhounds
Drawn to this stunning tiffany stone at a local gem and mineral show. They're asking $1200, which for me is a lot of money. My questions is: is this a fair price for this piece? It's from Utah, I'm really drawn to it, and to me it looks like cave paintings and reminds me of my mother and her mom.1yr ⋅ maydaseinbewithyou ⋅ r/rockhounds

I went hunting in a gravel pit yesterday here in Minnesota and found this rock. It was buried in the very back of the pit. When I was cleaning the stones, I noticed this star imprint on this stone. Anyone know what it is or what the purpose was/is? I’ve never seen anything like it.4yr ⋅ watsoninventor22 ⋅ r/rockhounds
