Welcome to Tnet Sarahjeanroth1985. It kinda looks like quartz and well rounded like it's been in a stream a while. There are others on here who can help better.

A more-specific ID... speaking as a former rock-hound and (briefly) a Geology major in college, your rock appears to be a very simple form of quartz called Quartzite. The shape of yours is rounded because it spent thousands of years in a fast-flowing river, which during flooding tumbled it over and over against other rocks, slowly battering off any "pointy" edges.

- Started with a Garrett. I think I've probably tried everything make and model from 1977, all the way to the up to the E-trac and GPX 4800.
Nothing new as for me now, I am pretty much handicapped.
