Sadly, it was only a small slabette I had, so I can't show the rough rock.
My hardness test shows moh's 7 /8 ?
Any idea- even a guess.
I'm gifting it & sure wish to be able to give some kind of an ID other than "pretty rock". Thanks in advance,
Patty

I don’t know, but it is a very pretty heart.

Thanks Pat, Pat , but that doesn't help. OK though, we'll upgrade it - "Pretty Heart Shaped Rock" Anyone else

Hmmm - I wonder what the catchy made up name could be ........ Maybe "Bleeding Heart Quartz with a Touch of Envy Green "
I think that's too long to fit on my card, I need a better one.

I’ve seen Maury like that. But that’s not my final answer

Does that mean, Maybe, Kinda, Sorta ?? I’ll try to find the Maury material that has that same white quartz with the yellow moss and green and post a pic. That’s the only reason I’m saying it’s a hard maybe.

No worries- I was kidding.
Question - I think I've read Maury is a moss ? I think of that being translucent - which this isn't.
But then I don't know - you much more than me ! I appreciate any input. Patty

Patty Some Maury is, some isn’t. However, I just found the pic in my phone, and I’m now going to say scratch that. The inclusion in your piece aren’t wispy enough from how I remember my piece looking.

Thanks for checking - I'm up for another guess. Yours would be better than anything I'd come up with
