    • @dustinfindsrocks

      Yeah chert/agate/quartz are all on a spectrum in my opinion. And yeah the chert/agate pieces are different from what I usually find. Definitely going to experiment with cutting some of them. My son already busted up the big one for me lol. I may try tumbling some of the pieces.

    Doesn't muriatic acid turn your rocks a yellow color? How long do you have to soak it for I soaked it for a day and it did not work well lol

    • @dustinfindsrocks
      @dustinfindsrocks  Рік тому +4

      I will definitely turn things yellow if you don't rinse it really well and then soak it for 24 hours in baking soda water to neutralize the acid. I'm definitely going to have to do a video soon detailing the process. I prefer iron out for oxide stains but muriatic acid is awesome for removing calcite limestone and dolomite from quartz and other minerals.

      Only reason I asked was cuz I was wondering if you if you had any knowledge of the meteor impact events in Missouri?
      Where are the meteor impact sites in Missouri?
      The geographic area that is now Missouri was hit at least twice and probably three times by crater-forming space rocks. The two confirmed meteorite impacts are the Crooked Creek structure (Crawford County) and the Decaturville structure (Camden County), both of which are several miles in diameter.Oct 14, 2020

You can Google 3 confirmed impacts on the 38 parallel lineament (I think) there are lots of pdfs on the geological studies done on these.
