To me it looks like polished granite. My guess you found them near Granite Bay beach near Noosa heads. The stones have been polish and rounded by wave action over thousands of years.

When wet you can see various colour. When dried out they fade a little.

Best guess I had was "some sort of granitoid". They have been polished for about 2 weeks with 80 grit and 2 weeks with 220 grit.
