Geode Specimens
(All specimens collected by Richard Jacquot unless otherwise noted)
Geodes have been recently found at Diamond Hill. The first geode specimen was found by a member of the Jacksonville, Florida Gem and Mineral Club in 2008. Since that time more of these unusual geodes have been found by collectors, some containing crystals of quartz, amethyst, smoky, epimorphs and pseudomorphs.
