Can some one help us identify this rock we found? We live in southwestern Ontario Canada if that helps. Thank you 20190812_171614.webp20190812_171614.webp

It looks a lot like a type of agate, which is one of the many gem qualities of quartz. Thunder Bay has big amethyst deposits, also a type of quartz. Nice rock. It would probably cut into a nice cabochon.
