[QUOTE="Lefty, post: 83979, member: 2976"] The other side actually looks like a piece of water-worn quartz Rich. Quartz crystals are apparently found at another location in the area, never been there myself - it's on private property and most likely has been closed down these days like almost all of them have been due to people doing the wrong thing and due to the risk posed to the landholder by public liability. I have found a few partially-formed ones at this site. Of some interest is the many quartz pebbles lying in the gravel - I've got a feeling some of them might be quite clear. The surface is frosted from being tumbled in the river bed but it might be worth putting a couple of windows on some of the better looking ones to see if any are facetable. [/QUOTE]
