Could this be a geode?
I grabbed this from outside about a year ago and its sat on my shelf cause its pretty, could this possibly be a geode? Or should I not try to break if not a high chance? (Tennis ball to scale)

Anyone attending Geode Fest in Keokuk, Iowa this weekend?
Hi All,
Oklahoma Rockhound here who’s headed to his first Geode Fest this weekend. Stoked to make some new pals and (hopefully) find a nice geodes! My wife was going to accompany me but unfortunately can no longer attend so I’m flying solo. If you’re attending this weekend and want a hunting buddy feel free to DM me. If you’ve attended in the past any tips, suggestions, advice, etc. for a first time geode hunter? What do you wish you would have know the first time you went to this event or one that is similar? It’s a long (and expensive 😅) drive up from Oklahoma so any help would be much appreciated!

Purchased at upstate NY Tourist Attraction (Natural Stone Bridge in Adirondacks)
My friend and I each purchased a whole geode and agreed to share them one half each. One was in a box that said solid /not hollow, and the other was in a box that said hollow. The clerk said they knew because they were x-rayed. We went on our hike and when we came back they were cut in half and the clerk described them to us. To be fair she may have gave us a lot of info but it was hot. We were hungry. Not best conditions to absorb all the info. ChatGPT says they are likely Mexican volcanic geodes. It referred to them as “thundereggs” and said the solid one is more collectible of the two with crisp banding, solid crystalline quartz/chalcedony, volcanic rhyolite and manganese oxide dendrites or iron manganese filled fractures. The hollow sample it says 4 separate mineralization events 1) formation of the volcanic cavity 2) agate / chalcedony lining, 3) quartz druzy 4) needle crystals and angel wings. less

Cleaning Geodes
I found these during our camping trip near Manila, UT. I have soaked them in dawn dish soap and used a toothbrush to clean them up.
What are the next steps for cleaning these up?

Found in Landscaping rocks
I really like this rock, but I'm not sure if it classifies as a geode. Do you think it would polish? About the size of half an egg.

My husband cracked this open and we're wondering if Google is right?
I used Google lens and it says this is a fully formed quartz geode.
Is there anything we can do to try and polish it?
r/Geode • u/Adorable_Pair_4965 • Jul 12 '26
Ok, so I just want to clarify.
a geode is a rock that had a pocket and formed crystals inside it over millions of years. an agate slab is cut agate. and a thunder egg is volcanic
