Summary
Rhode Island’s rare state rock, Cumberlandite, is a magnetic geological treasure formed billions of years ago from volcanic activity, speckled with white against its dark hue and found only here and in Sweden. Hunting it is no easy task—expeditions often trek through neighborhoods and private land, requiring sturdy shoes and patience, with the best spots hidden in wooded areas near cemeteries and houses. While not a fortune-changer, the thrill of discovery makes the hike worthwhile—just remember to respect the land and avoid the heat.
