Unidentified Mineral Specimen

The item appears to be an irregularly shaped mineral specimen, likely a fragment or a small, naturally occurring crystal. Its primary coloration is a translucent to opaque milky white, intermingled with prominent veins and patches of dark grey or black material. The specimen exhibits a rough, unpolished surface with visible facets and cleavage planes indicative of a natural break or formation. It is held between two fingers, suggesting a small size, likely no more than 2-3 centimeters in its longest dimension. The overall shape is angular, without any discernible signs of carving, cutting, or human modification. There are no apparent maker's marks, signatures, or stamps. The material appears dense, typical of most common minerals. The condition shows no significant signs of wear beyond its natural, unrefined state; there are no obvious cracks, chips (beyond its natural form), or repairs. Based on its visual characteristics, it could potentially be a form of quartz with inclusions, or perhaps part of an igneous or metamorphic rock containing multiple mineral components. Without further testing like hardness, streak, or crystal structure analysis, a precise identification is not possible from the image alone. Its estimated age is geological, given its natural formation, and its style is raw and unadorned. The craftsmanship is entirely natural, showcasing the inherent beauty and structural integrity of the earth's geological processes.
