Title: Found a rock on my property in Colorado, can someone help ID it?
Post by: James Harville on 01/10/2016 02:45:13
I have attached two pictures.  I am thinking somewhere between quartz, plagioclase, maybe a feldspar? 

It absolutely scratches glass.  I was as high up as 6000 feet on my property in Colorado.  It has a dark/blue purple hue to it in some places.

Thank you!
