Can anyone tell me anything about this rock?

Well, it has a green color under a coat of red. Also looks kinda heavy.

Can anyone else say anything more about this rock?

I'm sorry but I can't help you.Bit certainly has some color to it.

Nice multi-colored rock. No idea what it is. Just be grateful to be on the beach in Costa Rica mate.

Pm Tnet member Backwoodsbob. He’s good with rocks

 

[powrsurg]

This would polish up amazingly.

Almost looks like tumbled piece of granite with a lot of epidote in it.

 

[Agent Green]

Post it on a geology site, they could tell you based on region type of typical rock ect.. just a guess

 

[Kray Gelder]

Eclogite.

 

[smokeythecat]

You will need to know the geology of the immediate area. That will tell the tale.

It sure looks like Eclogite, but what is it doing in Costa Rica? That type of rock is found in Norway and South Africa.

Can you imagine what Joseph & the Technicoloured dream rock could tell you.

 

[WaterScoop]

It very nice. Look into cutting it in 1/2 and polishing it I bet it would look amazing.

Anywhere really deeply formed metamorphic rocks have been exposed at the surface, it may be found. So I have read. I have never seen it first hand, and just find it a very interesting stone with all the different minerals and colors. And it is quite rare and valuable, as a specimen if indeed Eclogite. IMO.

That's exactly the first thing I noticed...

Pretty trustworthy group on here but you can't vouch for everyone that might land or pass through... I hope he edits his post to delete those.
