We found a wide variety of minerals in our Indiana geodes as you can see in the
flowing pictures.

A couple of our geodes contained what appears to be millerite, although
I have not seen it in this particular form. One contained a balled up mat of the green
mineral that was loose inside the geode. The geode also contained a couple different forms
of calcite.
Since the millerite mass was loose, I was able to pull it out carefully to
photograph it separately on a piece of paper. I have since returned it to its spot in the geode
where it belongs - I'll have to keep this specimen out of any strong breezes to prevent the
millerite from blowing away.

We pulled up stakes Tuesday morning and headed west toward Keokuk, Iowa to
continue our geode hunting out there.
