Unidentified Mineral Specimen (Possibly Quartz)

The item is a small, irregularly shaped mineral specimen held in the palm of a hand. Its size is approximately that of a small pebble, easily fitting within the fingers. The specimen exhibits a translucent to opaque appearance, primarily with a milky white base color. There are visible inclusions of darker, earthy-colored material, appearing as mottled patches and specks embedded within the white matrix. The surface texture is rough and uneven, with some areas appearing slightly crystallized or botryoidal, suggesting a natural, unpolished form. There are no discernible signs of artificial shaping, cutting, or polishing, indicating it is likely a naturally occurring mineral fragment. The overall condition appears consistent with a found specimen, likely exhibiting some surface dirt or natural staining from its environment. No manufacturing marks, signatures, or any other form of human inscription are visible. Based on the visual characteristics of the white material and the presence of darker inclusions, it strongly resembles a form of quartz, possibly milky quartz or chalcedony with mineral staining or inclusions. Its age is indeterminable from the image, but as a natural mineral formation, it would be geologically ancient. The quality is that of a typical raw mineral specimen, valued for its natural form and potential mineral content.
