What is in a geode rock?
A geode is a round rock which contains a hollow cavity lined with crystals. Rocks which are completely filled with small compact crystal formations such as agate, jasper or chalcedony are called nodules. The only difference between a geode and a nodule is that a geode has a hollow cavity, and a nodule is solid.
What is small rock?
Small rocks are called pebbles. Every rock is made up of one or more minerals. Geologists (people who study rocks and minerals) classify rocks according to the way they are formed. The three main types are igneous, sedimentary, and metamorphic rocks.
Are agates and geodes the same thing?
A nodule is something roughly spherical deposited in a matrix. When the nodule has a cavity it is a geode. Often Chalcedony will deposit as a nodule or a geode. When the Chalcedony is banded it is an agate, although some chalcedonies that aren’t banded are still called agate, like moss agate, fire agate, etc.
Are all round rocks geodes?
Geodes are rocks that are hollow inside, rather than solid all the way through. Geodes are generally round, though some are egg-shaped. They can range from the size of a nut to several feet.
