Size: 3.25" (LARGE) -- see photos Omarolluks, sometimes shortened to "Omars", were formed on the Belcher islands in Canada's Hudson Bay and were later transported southwards by a glacier. Because scientists know precisely where they came from they are very valuable in documenting the movement of glaciers. Their distinctive pits form because the rock that was in the pit (a carbonate concretion) dissolved. These glacier erratics have been tumbled smooth and rounded in Lake Superior over millions of years until eventually washing up along the Michigan shoreline. These rocks are absolutely cool. Each one is unique with dissolved out pits or hemispherical voids. Petoskey Stone originates as a Native American name, Pet-O-Sega, which translates to "Sunbeams of Promise", "Rising Sun", or "Rays of Dawn" These 350 million year old fossils (Devonian Period) were collected in what seems to have been part of an ancient pinnacle reef. If you choose, these stones can be hand sanded and polished easily with wet/dry automotive sandpaper using... #200, #300, #400, #600, and #1200 grit. Dotted Sandstone Rocks: The white spots in the red sandstone are reduction spots, which are a result of the chemistry of the sandstone and groundwater when the rock was formed. Red sandstones, like the Jacobsville, get their color from a little bit of iron in the cement that was precipitated by groundwater and holds the sand grains together into solid rock. Because of the oxygen in the atmosphere and water, most of the iron is oxidized, making it red. In a few places the iron is reduced, leaving the sandstone the white color. The iron doesn’t get oxidized in those small zones because something in the rock used up all the oxygen before the iron could get it. Usually that something is a small bit of organic matter that was decomposing in the sand or a mineral that is more easily oxidized than iron. The area around that little bit of organic matter or mineral becomes oxygen poor, making the white reduction spots you see in those rocks.
