Flint Shapes

Flint Shapes


I think that this is flint.  I have been wondering about the "negative" crystal shapes in it. I have read that flint is a hard sedimentary rock form of the mineral quartz.  I wonder if quartz crystals could have been next to this rock as the sediment formed.  I don't know if that is a wild theory or not.  Never-the-less, I wonder about these shapes.

As a photograph, the negative shape on the bottom and the one above which could be viewed as negative or positive seem to compliment each other.  I find it interesting and I hope that you do too.
