The Villages Gem and Mineral Club meets Thursday nights 6:00 at Seabreeze. I believe there is a geologist or two in the club. And several people who can identify stones.

Take a photo of it up close. Go to google images and download it and the internet will search for like objects for you. I have had luck doing this with plants and flowers.

Did you dig this “object “ up or did it fall from the sky?

I think you can take it for granite...that there's at least one retired geologist here.
Of quartz...I could be wrong.
:D

Happy to have intrigued other villagers.
It is a cluster of small reflective pieces which can easily be brushed off. Not sure if it fell from the sky or was dug up.

Doesn’t look like a “rock”. More like a man made material bonded together.

I'm thinking a part of the waste when producing asphalt. It is common to see pieces like that around an Asphalt Manufacturing Plant.
Where was if found?

It was in our previous home for many years. I came across it when we were moving here so took it along to see if someone can identify it. Getting curious as I get older I guess.
