Clark County Indiana Geodes

Here are the last of the pictures I found in the Kodak camera's internal memory. They are not of fossils but of a specimens that quite a few people look for on the Internet...GEODES. I think a number of members were picking up geodes at the quarry during the KYANA Geological Society field trip. Here are two that I opened up and contain quartz? or calcite?

Pink-White Geode

Here are cut pieces of a geode found near the area of Lake Cumberland, Kentucky. It was away from the lake off the side of the road so I am just guessing at the time period of Mississippian. Since that area has rock from that time period I am making an educated guess.

I used the tile diamond saw to cut the rock into a number of slices.

Blue Geode

Okay, this is not a fossil from the Louisville area but a geode from an area around Lake Cumberland, Kentucky. It was blue colored so I took the diamond saw and cut it in two pieces. It was almost solid but not quite.

I might try and polish it to see if brings out any details.
