Interesting explanation of satellite activity Richard. And the gravity anomalies. So much isn't known.

But....no mineral pictures like Steve Sorrells posts, lol!---oil doesn't take a good photo. I found some oil geodes near McLean, IL, once; Cool to find, but what a mess!

Sorry... it's not exclusively minerals, but "tectonics and other" as well :)

Not a bad find and not too shabby production, at least in the early years. I'm sure in the intervening decades "look-alikes" have been searched for in hopes of another discovery.

Yes, I get it. ( Thus the "lol")

Speaking of oil, have you found any oil filled geodes? Weird stuff!

No, but I have some pretty thoroughly oil included and coated stuff from Rensselaer Indiana. I recall a few occasional geodes filled with muddy water.
