Really neat Volcanic Breccia from the Radersberg. Mt. Gold mining district circa 1860.

Found, cut and polished by moi.

Rock hounding is great fun!!

My new gig..cutting and polishing rocks, petrified wood, agates, etc.for sale. Should have a decent inventory soon.

This Upper Tertiary quartz breccia, found within the rugged Big Belt Mountains of central Montana, represents a striking geological formation. Composed predominantly of angular quartz pebbles, cobbles, and granules set in a coarse-grained, sandy matrix, it reflects deposition within a high-energy fluvial environment, likely linked to the dynamic mountain-building processes of the Tertiary period.

The quartz clasts exhibit a range of colors from translucent white to smoky gray, with occasional pinkish and milky varieties, indicating diverse provenance sources. Cemented primarily with silica or calcium carbonate, the conglomerate demonstrates moderate to high induration, showcasing its resistance to weathering and erosion.

This unit highlights regional tectonic activity and climatic shifts, as it formed in the aftermath of Laramide orogeny-related uplift. Its depositional features suggest braided river systems or alluvial fan environments, consistent with the geological history of post-orogenic landscapes. This formation is a valuable marker for reconstructing paleoenvironments and provides key insights into the erosional history and sediment transport mechanisms of the Upper Tertiary in the Northern Rocky Mountains.
