Hey yall from Plum Branch SC

  Hello everyone, we in Plum Branch, western McCormick county SC. I have been living on this hill in the Ntnl forest for 25 years and have always found rocks, cobbles and artifacts on weekends. I retired 2 years ago and the first thing was to find out what was the white quartz rock pile on my property. It all went downhill from there according to my wife and I've picking up and digging up the coolest rocks I've ever seen. It would be easier to list the colors and material that I have not found than what I have and would like to find out what some of them are.
Edited to add, I uploaded pics in "identifying your specimen"

Welcome wegrorocks! I'm excited to go check out what you posted in "identifying your specimen". It's awesome that you live right on top of what seems like a perfect place for a retired person who is also a rockhound.  Grin

Thank you Scott LaBorde!! It seems I've got every type of rock imaginable on my property.  I didnt know how much until I retired and really go into rockhounding. I did 28 yrs with the state and retired at 53 so, hopefully I have years of rockhounding to go!
