jasong Posted December 1, 2023 Share Posted December 1, 2023 Too cool, nice find. I've never seen something like that before and you are kinda in my neighborhood there on the Yellowstone too. If you find a name for it, post it back here? That would definitely be something to go hunting for the source! Almost wonder if it was agatized as part of a sea shell or something?

Past Member Posted December 1, 2023 Share Posted December 1, 2023 That's very unique. I'm calling it the "Peacock Rock". Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

BigSkyGuy Posted December 1, 2023 Share Posted December 1, 2023 Looks like Montana agate to me, although I have never seen a pattern quite like that. The Yellowstone is a known source of agate. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
