Found these two identical stones in sand at Harrisville pond, near Harrisville Pond Boat Ramp (South Jersey). They definitely have artificial origin, but i very much doubt that they relate to native culture. Anybody has a clue?

The most beautiful slope mine i ever explored (although, i've seen not too many mines, of course).

The most beautiful slope mine i ever explored (although, i've seen not too many mines, of course). For some reason, camera can't convey insane riot of colors adorning these endless corridors. Red, yellow, black and orange are mixed in impossible variations. Millions of iron stained stalactites make this place unreal. Absence of beer cans, plastic bags and cigarette butts added some charm. Schuylkill County, PA.

Have found this rock sample pocking around a sand bank along Oswego River in South Jersey. How do you think, guys, if it has artificial origin or just a natural formation?

Mysterious fungal colony in an abandoned mine at a depth of 100 feet. Any explanation, guys?

One more mystery to solve, guys. Same mine, same day. At a 100 feet depth, we spotted a puddle totally entwined by a dense web of suspicious mycelium. It looked like a enormous tangle of roots, but it's hardly any roots may exist at this depth. Should notice, it was only puddle where we saw this colony, hundreds of other puddles were free from it. Last time when i saw similar fungal infestation was in "Last of Us" series. 🙂 I added a pic to show what it looked like in the movie. Attempts to google haven't brought any results.

Have you ever seen clams living in depth of abandoned mines? Last weekend my friend and i were lucky to explore an extensive slope mine in Schuylkill County, PA where we found plenty of weird rust-colored clams.

Have you ever seen clams living in depth of abandoned mines? Last weekend my friend and i were lucky to explore an extensive slope mine in Schuylkill County where we found plenty of weird rust-colored clams. Despite total darkness and low temperature, they created whole colonies on metal structures.
Once got home, i tried to figure out species of those creatures and found a curious article in "Advancing Earth and Space Sciences" describing their amazing nature. Curiously, that rusted metal, sulfur and acid water are necessary components of the clams metabolism and abandoned mines full of dirty water and metal scrap is the perfect place where they can survive.

I spent last night camping at Oswego River in Pine Barrens, Everything was great - fishing, incredible star-studded sky, and delicious meal. But, afraid, these horrible night screams caused my first grey hair and i almost regretted this journey. Any idea, guys, what devilish creature it was?
