What Type of Rock is this?

[MatCendana]

I'm 60 years old. Geography wasn't of interest to me during school days and for most of my adult life. Until I started working with an engineering company 10 years ago. I became a lot more interested in Geology. Nowadays I can't get enough of this kind of very informative videos. Thank God for YouTube!

Glad to see that you are still making great Earth Science videos. Mike, your stuff is really the best out there - Thank you from a fellow Earth Science educator in a neighboring state :-)

Thanks for the video.

I have a stone gotten under the earth. The overall colour is black, but when you put it out in the sun, or shine a touch light on it, you will see tiny sparkling objects all over it. Then if you take a closer look at it, you will see tiny blue objects on it together with the white sparkling objects. So I was wondering the kind of gemstone it could be?

Thanks in advance for your response

you missed pyroclastic rocks such as welded tuff in your definition of igneous rocks

I have this rock and I don't remember exactly where I got it. Possibly Iceland many years ago. I would like to post a photo of it. How can I do that?

Mike? Ive got a bit of a mystery. Ive got a rock, in the shape of a toad. What’s mysterious about it. It has all the features one would expect of a toad in life. But. I’ve taken it to a Herpetologist and they see a narrow mouthed frog trapped in this rock. Now for the rock. The rock is igneous. But the color in the stone seems to have drawn in some of the color of the frog in life. Can you shed any light on this?

Would the vesicular texture instead come from weathering?
