Can you add something for scale? A penny or dollar bill.... Along with these close-ups would be a big help.

The inner structure looks like diamonds? Cinder cone Diamond?

I agree with jewelerguy. Looks like quartz.

I don't know if it is quartz, because quartz is usually a bit more clear, or if it isn't clear, it is a smoky color. Not sure what the inside stones are, but nice find! May I ask where you found it?

Looks like what they call "sugar quartz".

They have a really good rock, gem and fossil section here you might want to try as well. Welcome to T-Net.

I found it out in the Mukwonago River, SE Waukesha County, WI. I also found some other strange rocks during panning. Ill post some picks after the week end. Thanks for all the help.

Did you taste it ? Looks like salt.. If it tastes really salty its salt, if it taste like a rock its some type of quartz.

Keep @ it and HH !!
