    This is going to be rough as I don't really know anything about this rock. Bought it at the Labor Day Yard Sales up here. The guy I bought it from told me but it was something I never heard of before so it didn't stick. He showed me a smaller polished version but it looked like every other polished stone. I like this one in its natural state. It is about 5" on its longest side.
    Looks to be a sedimentary type rock. That's the kind that used to be dirt but turned into stone after a million years or so.
    I do collect rocks but basically based on how it looks and I don't know much about them. Basically I thought it looked neat and was unusual and so here it is.

      Looks like some sort of agate? Was the polished one he showed you really iridescent looking? Maybe fire agate?

      Thank you very much dav2no1. This is more like snadstone. There is no quartz.
