Tumbled smoky quartz (probable)
Quartz, silicon dioxide (SiO₂), smoky variety
Granite (likely biotite granite)
Coarse-grained plutonic rock composed chiefly of quartz, potassium feldspar, plagioclase, and biotite mica
Quartz-rich metamorphic rock, likely quartzite
Quartzite; predominantly microcrystalline quartz (SiO₂), possibly with mica or feldspar
Unakite (likely)
Epidote–orthoclase–quartz rock; composition approximately epidote Ca₂(Al,Fe³⁺)₃(SiO₄)₃(OH) plus K-feldspar and quartz
Tumbled milky quartz
Quartz, silicon dioxide (SiO₂)
Rounded granite or granitic gneiss cobble
Granite/granitic gneiss, chiefly quartz, feldspar, and mica
Likely assorted beach/river pebbles
Undetermined mixed lithologies; visible pieces may include quartz-rich and volcanic rocks
Quartz-rich pegmatitic rock, likely pink granite or quartzite
Probable pink granite/pegmatite; chiefly quartz (SiO₂), potassium feldspar, and minor mica
Pink granite (likely weathered granite)
Granite; mainly quartz, alkali feldspar, plagioclase, and minor mica
Tumbled orange chalcedony or jasper
Microcrystalline quartz, SiO₂; likely iron-stained chalcedony/jasper
What you get
Identify a rock, then explore everything about it — properties, formation, and your own notes — all in one app.
Point your camera at any rock and get an answer in seconds — no field guide, no guesswork.
Common name, scientific name, physical properties, and category — the data a geologist would write in a field notebook.
Trace each specimen back through time: how it formed, when, and which geological forces shaped it.
Add your own notes to any identification — conditions, observations, or anything you want to remember.
Build a private cabinet of every rock you’ve identified, with your own notes attached.
Browse rocks identified by other rockhounds — and share your own discoveries publicly or keep them private.
How it works
Capture the specimen in natural light. A clear shot of texture and color is all the AI needs.
Our model reads mineral, texture, and color signatures to identify what you’re looking at.
Get name, classification, formation, uses, and field notes — written like a real field guide.
