Any rock experts here? We really don't have rocks around here just mud, but I found this searching an old bottle dump.
My guess was dragon egg. Any ideas?

It was likely in a river for hundreds of years to have become that rounded.

I agree with granite. Might actually be an old native tool. Is it about the size to fit in your hand?

Looks like it might big+ heavy for a hand tool--hard to tell. The deal breaker on that otherwise good thought Embe, is that it shows no wear. Here is another well intended guess--ballast stone?

Not hand sized. Its fairly big. I'm not home but maybe 16"x12".
Has a lot of quartz on it too. I think my wife plans on putting it in a flower bed to catch the sun. Possibly the only find I've ever brought home she liked.

I hope you didn't have to carry it too many miles in a backpack... Roy

I must be lucky, as long as I don't bring home another woman she's okay with it.
