buildup in larger Lajitas Mesa geode

In attempting to take out some of the larger geodes I found in the strata containing them (weathering badly!) some broke up into several pieces and large buildups like this one tend to hold together as the shell breaks away. This one is still a little wet from rinsing off and some lint appears to have stuck to the specimen, right in the middle of the tabular crystals.
