      Hi all thanks for the wholesome loves. I think ive found some clues to what is this but probably it will need some verification with a mineralist/stonelogist/gematologist :p
      I think this is a mineral called Parisite. Googled brown mineral and this came up:


      "Parisite is a rare mineral consisting of cerium, lanthanum and calcium fluoro-carbonate, Ca(Ce,La)2(CO3)3F2. Parisite is mostly parisite-(Ce), but when neodymium is present in the structure the mineral becomes parisite-(Nd)."
