Crisson Gold Mine in Dahlonega, GA
Shown above is a gold nugget from Crisson Gold Mine in Dahlonega, GA. Notice the fractal energy forms going from bottom to top. That is energy directional.
Quarry at Graves Mountain, Lincolnton, GA - While a volcanic process can make this, it is also a suspect impact energy strata. Large boulders impale the upward strata. Ash in foreground. And of course the iron. Iron does not occur as a mist in a volcanic eruption. A close up inspection of this site would tell a lot about mechanism.
Dexter Craig of the Knoxville Gem and Mineral Society shock made agate from James H. Sloppy Floyd State Park near Summerville, Georgia. The matrix surface exposed in the vugs show a shock constellationing pattern of squares and circles. The black dots are late arriving micro impact sphere type particles separated in the shock chaos storm. Iron present is the atomized meteor in the shock wave.

I need to add this to my on-line encyclopedia of phenomena if you don't mind. Shock made mega clast with iron splatterform expansion constrained bubble from. Late arriving iron from the impacting bolide with very high heat making this two dimensional geometric form. You can see this with a bubble wand as the bubble surfaces will press against each other making geometric forms. Note the lower section as a less iron fractal inclusion which arrived before the higher iron splatterform.

My buddy picked this up at a rock yard in GA, it was mined locally. They used it to hold down a huge tarp, but let him buy it.
I was told this is called "iron boxwork formation".
Never seen anything like it...
Impact clast type 2 high heat slow cool. The blue is likely cobalt. A type 2 impactite is part surface part meteor mix. This is part of the bedrock strata highly shock modified metamorphic. When magnified the vug contains thin fractal quarts surface veins. These are fiber crystals a phenomena like volcanic Pele Hair. They arrive late in the impact event as shredded matter.

Graves Mountain Georgia found this rock at the october dig not sure what all is in it. it appears to have blue lazulite and a vug
that contained small quartz crystals and also crystal flowers of pyrophyllite

This specimen was found further inland than is typical. Ordivician types have been found in middle, TN. As recent as 19,000 years ago there was a late flooding period with the sea reaching all the way up into southern AK with not fossilized shells present in the sand deposits. See attached map.

Found in Madison, GA.
Madison, GA. As it only takes 10,000 years to make a fossil I think the data on the inland sea of Georgia should be reconsidered. July 7, 2024.
Impact made blast crevasses. These impressions point towards the center of an impact. It is highly likely that the boulder was in a simi liquid state as the blast occurred. The gravity map of Georgia shows several impact craters. Aug. 30, 2024.

Any thoughts on what this is? Approx 30 inches wide.

Impact sphere gas bubble collapse implosion. You see this variant shape physics with plasma/gas. As it is also ejected at speed from a kinetic explosion the collapse has a motion component. Without motion, the physics is explained in this technical article. Sept. 20, 2024.

The Evolution of a Gas Bubble Near an Inclined Wall

Jul 1998
The nonlinear dynamics of a gas bubble close to an inclined wall is investigated numerically. The fluid is assumed to be inviscid and incompressible and the flow irrotational. A time-integration boundary integral method is used to solve the Laplace equation for the velocity potential to calculate the shape and position of the bubble.

It is also one of the tektite sphere deformation shapes, From sphere to disk. Sept. 20, 2024.
Polk County, GA
While it is likely the sphere, i.e. a liquid drop is the origin off disk and tubular impactites, the flow drag as ejected from the kinetic explosion has a shaping effect cycle. It is something like the lava lamp blob shapes that keep changing shape. Sept. 20, 2024. Chart is from this article.

The internal inspections of some submerged structures require the use of remote operated underwater vehicles. However, such kinds of vehicles demand power, handling, and resilience characteristics in order to work properly without compromising its structure and its internal components.
Impact sphere/nodule, chert, jasper banding, geode type hollow expansion center. The material in the center was over cooked as impact shock waves form a resonate wave effect and cook from the inside out like your microwave oven. The banding is another resonate effect where the minerals attenuate at different frequencies and are separated. It contains specks of iron which is blast fragments from the impacting meteor/bolide.

Looking to identify this rock found in Walker County, Ga. I don’t know much about rocks yet but to describe how it looks, it looks like a knot from a tree. And it has bands that make me think of agate, red/orange part is translucent. When I washed it off, the center crumbled out and is now hollow.
