Does anyone know what this is? I think it's feldspar, I am not sure what type though. Please ignore the silver specks all over it! my mom accidentally got spray paint on it lol..
Its a white/pink rock that is very reflective. When I move it seems to light up reflecting light. Thank you!

My guess is white howlite.

Could be Feldspar or Calcite or several other things. Can you do any mineral tests to help us out ? a location where it was found might be a start as well.

I found it in Mahwah NJ. I can try to do a mineral test such as a hardness test, I don't have a lot of experience with testing rocks. I do have some streak plates as well if that would help. I also posted this in rock id help section and one person responded that it could be something called franklin marble. I'm not sure what this is. Thanks for your reply.
