Hello, I found almost the same stone on the beach of Oued Laou in Morocco. Can you help me and tell me more about this special stone? Thank you in advance for your effort. Kind regards, Hans Brand
Hi Hans. This stone is a breccia, meaning made up of little pieces of rock material. You will find more information on breccia when the first stone in this Post is discussed https://tumblestoneblog.wordpress.com/2024/09/18/september-2024-stone-collecting-trip-part-13-a-monomictic-sedimentary-breccia-stone-of-mudstone-clasts-gemstone-beach-wednesday-18-september/. Often the small fragments come from a variety of rock types. John
