| Domain | Definitions |
Mining | A. A hollow globular or subspherical body, from 2.5 to 30 cm or more in diameter, found in certain limestone beds and rarely in shales; it is characterized by a thin and sometimes incomplete outermost primary layer of dense chalcedony, by a cavity that is partly filled by a drusy lining of inward-projecting crystals (usually of quartz or calcite and sometimes of barite, celestite, and various sulfides) deposited from solution on the cavity walls. Unlike a druse, a geode is separable (by weathering) as a discrete nodule or concretion from the rock in which it occurs and its inner crystals are not of the same minerals as those of the enclosing rock b. The crystal-lined cavity in a geode c. A term applied to a rock cavity and its lining of crystals that is not separable as a discrete nodule from the enclosing rock. CF:v. (references) |
