The Above photograph was posted at the Washington Mineral Council Website depicting Geodes collected at their Walker Valley, WA Quarry. They indicated that the visible Quartz on/in the Basaltic Rock Matrix, center of photograph, are Geodes.
I must take issue with this. We visit this Quarry several times per year. While we have found several nice Geodes in the Brown/Tan Matrix illustrated on the left side of the photograph, I believe that the Quartz in the Basaltic Rock are portions of Vugs and not Geodes. As with everything in this World, I may be incorrect, but I am inclined to think not.
