I found this with a bunch of Burlington gravel. There is no difference in texture between the colors. Breaks conchoidal. This was the only piece around.
I forgot to add, my guess is some kind of camo Reeds.

Possibly la moine chert

OK, big disappointment! I broke that rock last night and the dark is just a discoloration on the outside. It is white inside and not very good quality. I threw it in the gravel pile. Had it been that color all the way through, I probably would have cooked it to see if it improved. So end result, discolored poor quality burlington.

Not so much. You learned a good deal about patina and what the natives liked or didn't.
