[QUOTE="user 4386, post: 404592, member: 4386"] Serpentinite would be my guess - it is what nickel ore forms from by weathering in that part of the world. But if so it should be a slightly greenish shade (hard to see) and have a distinctly soapy feel (might have very thin veins of white asbestos). Would be able to carve it with a sharp pocket-knife but might be hard to scratch with a gold coin. [/QUOTE]
