Could be a hornblende mineral is likely the flat black crystals, shiny black is usually Biotite mica, though I don't see any in the pics. Looks to be a pegmatite rock.

It is a Pegmatite. Not a type of rock but a form of mineralization that creates very large crystals due to slow cooling with high water content.

From the picture the rock itself appears to be composed mostly of Feldspar and Schorl (black Tourmaline).
