Ever heard of Puddingstone? It’s a type of conglomerate — a rock made of rounded pebbles (clasts) cemented together. The classic Hertfordshire Pudding Stone in England is famous for its smooth, rounded clasts. That shape tells us a lot about its journey: ➡️ Rounded = long transport ➡️ Big clasts = high energy — think fast mountain streams or crashing shorelines Each bump and tumble downstream wears the edges smoother — like nature’s rock tumbler working over millions of years. #PlanetGeo #Geolog

Ever heard of Puddingstone? It’s not dessert — it’s geology with flavor. 😄 Puddingstone is a type of conglomerate rock that looks like fruitcake or plum pudding — with colorful pebbles (“fruit”) cemented in a finer-grained matrix (“cake”). It’s a perfect example of how geology and imagination meet — ancient rivers and sediments turned into rock that literally looks good enough to eat. #PlanetGeo #GeologyExplained #PuddingStone #Conglomerate #GeologyRocks #EarthScience #rocktalkpodcast | PlanetG

A Puddingstone axe on its way to a customer who has been very patient as we’ve battled through injuries and flu (not been fun). This unusual rock comes from my home county of Hertfordshire. It was quarried during the Roman occupation of Britain to produce quern stones due to its incredibly hard-wearing properties. Later, large boulders of this rock were placed at crossroads and in church walls or yards, possibly due to the superstitions connected to it. Puddingstone is a conglomerate of smooth f

Did this cut on a nice puddingstone and the inside was EMPTY!!! With a little ingenuity and the trim saw, I cut some rough smaller stones from it rather than slabs and we polished it to a high shine on today’s LIVE. ##puddingstone #michiganrocks #coolrocks #lapidary #live @Hi-Tech Diamond
