But I think it is quartz crystal rough rock with lead spects. How and where did you come about the sample?

I came across an old house that had many interesting rocks in the yard. Someone must have been a rockhound. I have more but just posting one at a time

 

[Chelle67]

I guess it might be important to know that house is in NCentral Kansas

I say it's just a piece of rough quartz, we see often in mineral rich gold bearing areas.

Thank You

Sometimes coral grows like that.

Take a look at the TreasureNet thread in my signature. Lots of folks post there. The original poster hasn't been on the site for a while, but you might want to try that thread as it's all about ID'ing rocks. Best of luck!

I'm thinking it's "gypsum" maybe from Kansas Gypsum Quarries, Mines and Mills in Barber County, Kansas
