That is interesting. It’s like rock alloys without (necessarily) the metal.

Indian Rock in Berkeley. The view is pretty. The formation would make a good set for the first Star Trek series.

The fossil shell is beautiful!
No rocks here just sand, clay and silt, only a few deposited stones by glaciers during the last ice age, used a couple of thousand years ago for graves.

I encountered lab-made rocks and mineral just a few months ago. I was looking at some lovely things and I asked how they were mined with such fragility? Needless to say, they are not. They are grown in the natural formation that there molecular structure desires. Beautiful stuff! I bought one.

Nah. That's just a very slow meteorite.

Rain drop and cat paw handmade backyard fossils. Sedimentally deposits.

Firepit henge. This curious formation was put here by nameless troglodytes over six million minutes ago.
