I noticed that last time we were out there. The jetties seem to be made from large chunks of Quartz. I assume that is what we're talking about????

The Jetty rocks are, most likely, granite, which has sparkley content much like some quartz. I'm still shooting in the dark here, because no one has clarified the original query. :doh
