A bamboo pattern stone

My a friend just collected a Yangtze River pattern stone, look like so beautiful.

Bamboo:
Size: 9.06 x 7.09 x 3.94 inch

Heven,

The stone is beautiful! Do you have a notion as to what it might be in a mineral taxonomic sense? It looks like it might be jadeite, but I've never seen jadeite fracture and oxidize like this.

It seems as if you have modified the image to place it on a bamboo-like seat. None-the-less, the stone is very intersting. Thank you for showing it to us.

Hello David B,

I am not sure if there are minerals in it, but the stone has high texture, the holder told me when he took this photo not any oil or water.

P.S. The seat matched with the stone by computer, so it looks not match for both a little.

It is rare in river:)
