hello,
 thanks, after a long time i was able to login again, anyway, i would like to ask if there is anybody who has a knowledge about these kind of stones...... according to the owner(who is a son of the person who find these), it was taken from a "gusi" or a jar when his father is plowing their field(that was a long time ago), the jar was accidentally hit by his father plow or "araro," please give any idea,thanks

Axis, look for a jeweler if these are Onyx, but my guess is that you might have precious stones inside these. Try breaking one, carefully.

I've seen those kinds of stones before and they are only found in a few places around the world and the Philippines is one of the places. You can sell those. I will try and source what the name is for you.

axis,
     if it is found in the jar.. that stones has a value and maybe there are more precious stone they found that jar .. or maybe they left that stone because they find out that that stones has no value.. or maybe that stone is a sign...

BTW, do you have a photos of the jar.. i'm interested with the Jar....

mam racquel, unfortunately, the jar is gone and not with them,according to the son, there are three persons plowing the field when his father hit the jar(his father and the other two farmer friends ) and there are some other stones (white stones) together with these black stones, they divided the stones among them leaving these to his father.this happens a along long time ago, by the way, the sketch of the place where they got is this, above this land is a big rock which is shaped like an skull,that's why the place is called "mabungo," because on the cave near the place, the people there found several skulls.

sir tony, please let me know the name

thanks,

Just an advice: Those stones won't work without the other complete pieces brought together. Do not break it too, no matter what.

My word, take it or leave it.

Well, I don't think so. Those stones are not 'magical' or anything like that. What I know is those types of stones are only found in a few places around the world and, like I said before, the Philippines happens to be one of the places.

Still working on it, Axis.

Those stones looks like Tektite minerals more common in Pangasinan area.

Tektites are natural globules of pure glass that have fallen from the sky. It is believed to have been formed when a meteor/comet struck the Earth on the Gulf of Thailand, exploding a million tons of molten rock up through the atmosphere. This material then fell back to earth and was widely distributed over an area which extends from Australia to Madagasgar and as far north as China.
Impact Age: 7,500 yea
