Rock and minerals macro photography: lazulite matrix

Part 8: lazulite with unique patterns

I found these blueish rocks on top of the quarry at Graves Moutain, it was probably the most common sought after stone in the area. Next to quartz which was also all over the place.

These blueish stones are kind of sandy, and probably would not survive the tumbler.

The last two are very close up shots of the matrix's.

Nice rock. Really like the first one, the last one looks interesting too. Like chal, a bit, or a skeleton haha.

Thanks Gandalf, yeah me too.. You can see the patterns the best in the first one. You mean like chalk? Yeah it is like that.

Yes, probably that is the reason why I like it the most haha. I like those sharp photos.
Oh, yes of course "chalk"; somehow I forgot to type "k". Alright haha
