Bishop54 Posted July 22, 2009 Share Posted July 22, 2009 My nephew and I decided to skip the shale pile today and go look at some of the rocks on the many stone walls on my Dad's property and we cracked open this old strange rock and found what looks like coral. Is this indeed coral or am I far from correct? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Bishop54 Posted July 22, 2009 Author Share Posted July 22, 2009 Thanks, it's my nephews. He has yet to find something so I said the next thing I find will be his so this is it. He'll be happy to know exactly what it is and that an expert here said it's very nice. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Bishop54 Posted July 22, 2009 Author Share Posted July 22, 2009 There are a bunch more of these rocks on the property. I think I should bust some more open and see what I can find. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
