Dear Beth,
Since you are interested in this particular form or relic, perhaps I
could ask a different sort of question about it. From references to
Virgin's milk relics I have come across, it has struck me that quite
a few of them involve rocks stained with the Virgin's milk. Is this
impression correct? And if so, is there an explanation for this
peculiar phenomenon?
Cheers,
Jim Bugslag
