About the pics: Not sure why they don't appear - if they were in the preview they should go through. I'll look in to the problem and see if I can fix it.
As for the rock: looks like a bit of phyliite (a metamorphic rock caused by regional metamorphism - i.e. when mountains get built).

Foot shaped rock, need help identifying rock type
Submitted by lillie_land on Thu, 01/31/2008 - 05:40.Hi I am SO new to this but am becoming very interested.
I found a foot shaped rock in a river in TN headed up to Cades Cove back in '03. I have been wanting to get some answers about it but just never sought after any until recently when I called LSU and spoke with a professor there.
It just really has been bothering me lately to find out its composition.
I am attaching a pic and also have stats of it. Its really quite interesting.
Any help would be welcomed.
Thank you,
Lillie
