A larger version of the ugly rock
I've had a couple people ask if I knew what kind of rock in my last post was. I believe it is a hematite aggregate. I found a larger version which I now post.

It is massively larger than the last rock.

I did a little cleaning of the smaller stone with muriatic acid. It got rid of the calcite between the nodules

It also exposed some white opal between the nodules

So remember: even ugly rocks can be cool!
Beautiful photos!
In my opinion, there are no ugly stones, there are only strange stones :-)
I really liked the stone on the first photo!
I don `t know, if you saw, but on the first photo on a stone the muzzle of the dog is clearly visible!
Take a closer look:
the lower gray part of the stone - on it are 2 brown eyes, a nose and light ears.
And in one eye there is even a black pupil of the eye!
Help me a little. Are you talking about the first photo of this post or the previous one? I get people seeing images on our rocks on a regular basis. We even have one at our store with a small sign saying; "What do you see?"
:-)
I mean this post.
And the first photo of this post.
And now you see, what I wrote about?
I see it! Putting out another post inspired by you :-). It'll be a quick one. Working on it now.
I'm glad that you saw!
Often happen:
I see, other* - no ...
But after I describe - they see :-)
That is possible, I always think of hematite in the form that's used to make jewellery, forgetting about the red kind
You have a minor misspelling in the following sentence:
It should be believe instead of beleive.Thanks for the correction. I meant to go back to that but forgot.
But you missed aggregate; spelled with two Gs. I also meant to go back to that one.
