This rock looks like quartz but I did not see any matches. I could always go to where I bought it as it is a nice little rock shop up here on the mountain. Just watch out for the Dalmatian. Harmless but it is large and can startle one.
This rock has a very glass like texture. Haven't added a new piece to the rock collection for some time and this seems a fine addition.

Looks like Potash to me....I have a piece here too. Lots of Potash mining around here

Does it look like that? I will take a pic of mine later as it is the Wee hours here...LOL. Anyways, just my guess on it
a gues meabe quartz with jasper???
I'm on a tiny screen, but it looks like mixed Rose Quartz to me. Its one of the three main colours, and the fracturing looks correct.
Thank you very much Rose. Looks close but isn't as glassy as this rock.
Thank you very much nutsabotas6. Let me check google images. I see a similarity but not it.
Thank you very much aura. Seems like the right tract but not it again.
Thank you very much SpiritBear but this orange and white.
I could be mistaken and it could be one of these.
Thank you

Exciting news. At the rock shop I was told it is calcite.
Although I still don't see an exact match.
