Hello, I’m new to this site, I wondered if you could help me identify my recent find.
Whilst on holiday in Alicante Spain I did a little exploring up a near by mountain, I found a lot of fossilised shells up there but also found this rock, unfortunately the picture doesn’t do it justice but it’s lovely and sparkly and has a cloudy glass appearance to some areas. Any info is very much appreciated. I love to collect rocks and fossils but am not at all educated on them :-)
Thanks xx

Because you mentioned the fossilized shells in the area, my guess would be calcite crystals.

1st - I noticed this was your very first post - so, Welcome Aboard ShineSparkles! You didn't list your state (or country) in your profile. So, you might consider jumping over to Sub-Forum: Select Your Area.... for information (i.e., clubs, hunts, finds, legends, maps, etc.) directly related to your state (or country).
