Polished Stones               Look at the slide show (above)!

This is my collection of stones but I don't know their name. I will try to find it out! Could you help me?

Unpolished Stones

Red earth from Georgia. This sample I collected it myself, no crook was involved!...

In Kentucky a crook sold me this "stone" as being a very rare species. I showed it to a specialist who told me that it was plain artificial glass!... Still! it looks nice.

Sand from the White Sand Natl. Monument in New Mexico near Alamogordo. It is practically pure crystalline Gypsum accumulated there by wind. It is the area where some of the first atomic bombs were experimented!

Volcanic black sand from the Canary Island Teneriffa. Collected at Puerto de la Cruz. When wet it is totally black!

Petrified trunks at Patrified Forest Ntl. Park (AZ)

Salt collected in the Salt Flats near the Bonneville Speedway, Utah.
