Hi RTH Help me identify this rock so ashamed of myself for the carppy The rock is at head shop I visit It caught my eye & the proprietor was wondering what type it was. Well I handled it and had no real specific answer. Maybe verbal description will add some insight Dense with a heavy specific gravity/ Metamorphic Mixture of minerals ^ Metallic of some sort? As lots platy like mica shine. Which I thought might be silver. Also seems to have reddish crystalline inclusions. Kind like garnets? Anyway take a wild stab… Thanks Ed

mohsWhat are you going to a head shop for ? Do you need a brain transplant, or to reset your headspace and timing. (sunshine) Maybe your blurry rock is a mica schist with garnet.

If it is a garnet, get a rare earth metal magnet, the strong kind, because garnet is magnetic, we have a beach that had garnet sand and would separate the pink garnet sand out from the regular with a magnet.
