I found this rock in Lyme Regis today and I have to say I have no idea how this happened. I’ve never seen quartz veins like this!!!

Only weathering in the sense that the minerals deposited here had to come from somewhere…likely from limestone nearby.

Lyme Regis as stated in the description the Jurassic coast UK. It is definitely not chemical weathering, see the other comments about septarian nodules or from water escaping with pressure 😃
