unknown rock found

[rockcollect]

I found this unknown rock today. It has a beige tan smooth outside with a weird structure in it and black angular crystals, it is black on the inside with a visible matrix with some white areas. The broken surfaces have a sort of lunar look to them. What is this rock? The colors have been changed by the flash but it is white beige tan colored on the outside and smooth.

Did you try touching it to your tongue? If it sticks to your tongue it could be dinosaur bone.

Actually, there was a punch line to my comment, but you’ve been so gracious in your reply that I’ll just save it for a more appropriate occasion. Good luck in your search and happy hunting. 👍

From AI :

Paleontologists and geologists use the "lick test" to help distinguish between a standard rock and a fossilized bone. Bone will stick to your tongue, ordinary rock won’t.

Why Does It Happen?

• Porosity: Fossilized bones retain the tiny, spongy, porous structure of living bone.
• Capillary Action: When you touch your wet tongue to the fossil, these microscopic holes pull in the moisture from your mouth.
• Suction: The absorption creates a slight vacuum, making the fossil feel sticky or like it is gently gripping your tongue.

It looks to me like it’s a black rock with a yellow patina. No idea what it is.
