I would think it must be a find of decent size. They are heavily encrusted, but not just caliche and such - lots of sand and small stones stuck in it. I've also noticed small brassy flakes (pyrite?) stuck to them. Here is a picture of a cut face: http://i25.photobucket.com/albums/c57/pkmorgan/share/encrusted_cut.jpg And here is a picture of the exterior: http://i25.photobucket.com/albums/c57/pkmorgan/share/encrusted_back.jpg Even if you haven't seen these in person, any observations would be appreciated.
