Cut this with tile saw last night and was wondering what type of rock it is and what the small white balls in the center of the rock are. Picked the rock out of my landscaping. Place that bought it from just call it bull rock. Any idea as to what kind of rock it is? Understand I'm lacking with any distinguishing details but can get/give details if something specific would hel p to identify. Btw I'm obviously a huge noob so please forgive my ignorance

Place that bought it from just call it bull rock. I wonder whether they meant "Bull Canyon" (from NE California, and which has some moss and plume agate with those colors)? Difficult to tell from a photo, but the white spots could be orbs or the ends of tubes.

I darkened the photo to give better detail of the white "spots". Hoping this can help someone ID.

Thanks for the touch up. Here is another pic of rock in better lighting.

I've seen several lake superior agate nodules with formations like that in the center.
