I found this rock on my father in law’s property,
Does anyone know what kind of rock this is ? Looks like scoria type outside, but very shiny and bright inside !
What is it ?
I will appreciate your answer and your help . Thank you
Does anyone have any guesses as to what this is? I'm not sure where it actually came from so I can't ask a shop/check a shop's website or anything of that sort. Any help is greatly appreciated!
Ok guys I have this rock I found and am wondering what you guys think...I posted at a different forum and got a few uncertain mixed responses. I have a video that shows it better but was unable to upload it here so I just have pics. Thanks in advance fellow rock hounds!

Its was found in a field near a city which doesn't have any volcano activity there or even close, in fact the country (Portugal) does not have or had any active volcanoes.

This rock was actually found in our yard and once we broke it up we found this (see pics). Can anyone tell me #1 What kind of rock this is? #2 Is this unusual? and #3 Is that Gold in it or something else ie. Pyrite etc. Any information would be greatly appreciated.
A little background...
My child found this under the tree in our backyard, I think its Anthracite but would like a second opinion.
