OH... it is over one of the rocks I like to carve, to make little pots... __________________ Jose Alberto Franco Guatemala Central America http://www.doschivos.com

Well, I got you all confused, right? or am I the confused one? well, don't really know... Matt you have a great imagination and Al you doubt everyting... well, the reall kind of "fosile" is the little rock, I don't know if it can be called a fosile indeed, but it is certainly a methamorphic rock (caliza and some organic material) with the shape of a shell... the rock underneath it is an igneous rock, but it certainly is just a "stand" for the rock I wanted to show you, and the clam idea sounds nice... well, if you want to laugh at me, don't do it loud... at least try not to do that... __________________ Jose Alberto Franco Guatemala Central America http://www.doschivos.com

The lava is not the matrix. It is being used to display the shell. Cool.
