It appears to be a clump of crystals formed together. We found it in the ocean in South Fla.

Seems like I remember reading about those somewhere... I could be wrong, but someone said something about a school project that was done with resin....

I have one from TX found in a creek that had dino tracks in the limestone bed.... not something made in a classroom, I think

Here is an example of some like what I am talking about. Few years back people were finding them in oceans at beaches, but I can't be bothered to go find the post on another detecting forum

Look up : orgonite pieces

Could be gypsum crystals?

This definitely is not orgonite pieces. They are individual "pieces" naturally grown together to form one big piece. The bottom, top and sides are consistent with crystalization. Notice how none of the surfaces are smooth, like they would be if created in a pan.

I see you are brand=new to TreasureNet, so, welcome.

You will probably have better luck getting your crystalline rock correctly identified over in T-Net's "Rocks/Gems" forum... where the serious rock-hounds and Mineralogists hang out.

In the meantime, speaking as a rock-hound way back in my college years, it looks like a wave-tumbled (smoothed) Calcite crystal cluster.

Do a Google-search for Calcite. It is a mineral found in sedimentary stone, which is the only kind of stone Florida "naturally" has (meaning, not transported there by humans)..

Well, the smooth outside, with the glare on it appears smooth... but I don't have it in my hands...sorry I couldn't help.
