Dalmatian Stone, or orbicular Rhyolite, is an igneous rock that
was formed by lava flows on the Earth's surface. The spots or "orbs"
probably occurred when molten lava reacted with fragments of rock known
as Xenoliths. These stones are light to dark tan in color with black
spots throughout. The nickname "Dalmatian" was given to this unusual
looking mineral because of its resemblance to a Dalmatian dog's spots. |

Obsidian is a type of naturally-occurring glass formed as an
extrusive igneous rock. It is produced when felsic lava erupted from a
volcano, cools rapidly through the glass transition temperature and
freezes without sufficient time for Crystal growth. Because of the lack
of Crystal structure, Obsidian blade edges can reach almost molecular
thinness, leading to its ancient use of projectile points (arrow heads),
and its modern use as surgical scalpel blades.
In some stones, the
inclusion small, white, radially
clustered crystals of
cristobalite in the black glass produce
a blotchy or snowflake pattern (snowflake obsidian). |

Moonstone is a typical Potassium Aluminum Silicate with
several commonalities with the Feldspar family. It's name is derived
from the visual effect or sheen that is caused by light reflecting
internally and externally from the layer inclusions of different
Feldspars. Moonstone is closely related to Sunstone, Labradorite and
Sodalite.

Septarian, also know as a type of Concretion, is a volume of sedimentary
rock in which a mineral cement fills the porosity. Concretions are
often ovoid or spherical in shape. They form within layers of
sedimentary strata that has already been deposited. It is composed of a
Carbonate mineral such as Calcite, a Silica such as Chert, Flint or
Jasper or an Iron Oxide such as Goethite or Hematite. It is commonly
found in Shale, Siltstones and Sandstones.

Petrified Wood is a type of a fossil as it consists of fossil wood where
all the organic materials have been replaced with minerals while retaining the
original structure of the wood. These minerals are most often Silicates
such as Quartz. Other minerals, Manganese, Iron and Copper, in the water
or mud during the petrification process gives Petrified Wood a variety of color
ranges: black - Carbon; green/blue - Copper; red/brown/yellow - Iron.
Petrified Wood can preserve the original structure of the wood in all its detail
all the way down to the microscopic level. Structures such as tree rings
and the various tissues are often observed features. Although Petrified
Wood can be found worldwide, it is rather rare in larger quantities and at times
can be difficult to obtain by the average collector.

Calcite is a Carbonate mineral that is most widely distributed on the
Earth's surface. It is a common constituent of sedimentary rocks with
Limestone in particular. A Calcite formation can take on many different
shapes and sizes which is dependent on the location, ground water occurrence
and temperature. Calcite is usually white or colorless but can be
gray, red, yellow, green, blue, violet, brown or black. The deeper
the color is usually indicative of the definitive impurities from the earth
or water.

Quartz is the second most common mineral in the Earth's
continental crust. It is mainly composed of Silica or Silica based
minerals. Although Quartz is known by a variety of names, the most
important distinction between types of Quartz is that of
macro-crystalline, individual crystals visible to the unaided eye, and
micro-crystalline, where aggregates of crystals are only visible under
high magnification. There are many forms of Quartz including
Chalcedony, Amethyst, Citrine, and Carnelian which are results of
mineral impurities or heat treatments. |

have an intensely color matrix usually blue or violet, and more rare,
green. |

as Citrine or "burnt" Amethyst. It occurs in color from a light, slightly
pinkish violet to a deep grape purple. It is widely distributed as an
ornamental stone, but fine, clear specimens that are suitable for cutting
are used in jewelry.
