Any ideas on what this is? Was found in Henderson County. ![[Linked Image]](https://texashuntingforum.com/forum/pics/userpics/2020/07/full-56041-241521-e2488f7b_3ab0_4fee_8b76_ffb16dbcd932.jpeg)

Wife said possibly Lapis stone from the look and bit of blue. Shine a light from one side does it look more blue?
lf the saying "Liar, Liar your pants on fire" were true
Mainstream news might be fun to watch

Where is Henderson county did you find it? I think that that was brought in from somewhere else.

It could be a meterotite, but the formations in that area of Henderson County would not produce that kind of rock. There are some Facebook groups that might be able to help.

I'm not a geologist but this is a picture of biotite and it's in Texas. There's biotite and biotite gneiss, pure biotite is a form of mica and soft. biotite gneiss often contains quartz, which will scratch glass. I think that biotite gneiss is a real possibility.
for every stereotype there's a prototype don't be the prototype

My resource said with Glass/Crystal appearance that it is likely Quartz.

Most likely not quartz- cleavage is wrong for quartz.
