mrm0rgan Posted April 17, 2021 Share Posted April 17, 2021 a friend of mine found these up in the hills of oregon. they say from what I've read that obsidian cannot be this red maybe a orange brownish mahogany color but this is not slag its bright red has some black in it some dark purples. if not obsidian and not slag then what is it???? the darker piece is small maybe 2 inches the other two are the size of two adult males fist. somebody please tell me what they are. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
schoolofhardNox Posted April 17, 2021 Share Posted April 17, 2021 My guess would still be slag. If you are on Facebook, there are many forums for rock identification. Mostly when I see a similar item there, most call it slag. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Steve Herschbach Posted April 19, 2021 Share Posted April 19, 2021 Looks artificial to me, not obsidian. Pretty though. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Joe D. Posted April 19, 2021 Share Posted April 19, 2021 It looks like some type of commercial resin mix! Like used in making bowling balls! 👍👍 5 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Goldseeker5000 Posted September 13, 2021 Share Posted September 13, 2021 It does in fact look artificial, but, if it is not, my guess would be Jasper. I have a red rock very similar but slightly dull in luster. My rock is Jasper. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
