I live in southeast Tennessee. While looking for arrowheads in a nearby creek one day that is being excuvated to restore its beauty, I found the weirdest rock about 50 ft from the creek in some plowed up ground. It is my mystery matrix rock because no one is quiet sure what it is, or how it was formed. It is a clear rock or glass that has a tear shaped chamber inside that has purple tinted liquid and a gas bubble and metal flecks that is sealed inside of it. On a scratch test to see if it were glass or quartz, I scratched the matrix on the glass and it did scratch it, but with a little force. There are no glass manufactures in my area nor has there been. There were active volcanoes in my area millions of years ago, but ive heard if it were silica, it would of had to of been pure in order for it to be so clear. My rock has pits in it caused from extreme heat. I also live in a valley. At some point in time my area was hit by a huge astroid, meteorite, or comet. I took it to a geology proffessor today who is just as boggled as everyone else. If anyone has any theory as to how my mystery matrix was formed, please, let give me your opinion. <br /><br /><br /><br />
