P.S.  I've seen this "peacock ore" coloring on some fresh falls, including
Ash Creek (West, TX) and Buzzard Coulee, so I'm sure Chladni's Heirs is
another example of it.

Beer makes the mind clear! That is: if you don´t overdose 
it, of course!! And if you prefer the German or Czech brands 
with the brewing traditions of past centuries, w/o chemistry...
