Looks sort of like some of the fossilized whale bone we find here, on sites where I hunt for fossils and big shark teeth.

I'm not suggesting that's what it is, but it certainly looks like it could be a piece of fossilized bone or petrified wood, or something like that. That would account for its shape.

...and fossils are technically rocks.

This could be a piece of a core sample taken out of the earth's crust uasually by geoligist-they are usually round and the color of the rock matches up with what they look like

Hmm, it looks like one of my wife's biscuits. Did your tooth break when you tried to bite it?

Haha I can assure its some kind of rock the area I'm in had a lot of aboriginal activity so I think it could be part of a broken stone tool
A friend found a stone axe not to far away.

I agree. Looks like an igneous rock which has been polished on one side but not finished.
