Thanks timetlvlr, I had never heard of a geode before. Apparently you find them in areas that had a volcano at one time, right?
Here is a video I just found. Cool!!! I want one!
I don't know but the whole area down there must have been subject to vulcanism because just about every mineral has been actively mined there. About a mile up the road from our farm, the serious, very steep and rough mountains began and during the war fluorspar was mined there. It's a glassy mineral that I understand is used in steel making. Copper, manganese, lead, silver, and others are mined near there.
