Sandstone Specimen (White with Red Cap and Red Bottom

Part of the “Leaverite” Collection

2025: Box #101 – Johnstown

Note:

If you’re a rockhound, you know that there is no such thing as leaving behind an interesting rock.

However, in the big bad world, the “others” simply sigh deeply and say, “Why don’t you ‘leave ‘er right there?’”

Hence, I introduce the term “Leaverite/s**” for rocks that have little or no value in the non-rock world but mean the world to us.

 

**I did not coin this word, but I heartily approve of it!

That’s why soap and water exist. – You get why rocks are so spiritual; you understand that rocks have been around since the beginning of earth ...
