G Golderix Newbie Jun 30, 2014 2 0 Primary Interest: All Treasure Hunting Jun 30, 2014 #1 Hello! I found a rock on a beach the other day. It was lying at a depth of about 10-30 cm and it is said that the area I found the rock on was used for sand and gravel mining in the past. I will post three pictures and hope you can help me.

You can do a scratch test and see if it comes out gray. Upvote 0
