What Type of Rock Is This?

[Oklahoma Digger]

Can anyone I.D. this rock? Have sum black burnt looking spots. Turned shiny like metal in one area when I broke it to see what the inside looked like. Also appears rusty crusty top layer. Thanks!!!

It looks like a form of sandstone or a metamorphosed sandstone. It can get a brown iron oxide coating over it. Were you able to break it with your hands?

Hmmm.....I'm just giving an opinion, nothing to strictly go by, but from what can see, it still seems like a metamorphosed sandstone. I'm guessing OK has plenty of that, I've never been there before though. It seems like it is a more of a natural occurring rock example.
