this one is a quite interesting to us. my wife loved it! it is her favourite one.

it seems like an andesite but it is really beautiful and i did not know the andesite as a shiny beautiful rock like this one! maybe it was because of my lack of information and experience:)

one important thing is that the stone has shiny points when you move it before your eyes, looks like there is embedded particles to shine!!

It looks like an igneous rock like diorite or diabase. The sparkles could be manganese. Gary

thank you very much Gary! spot on identification! seems to me a diorite. the sparkles are manganese! very much appreciated!
