The broken one's grain looks too soft to be basalt but maybe. I snag the photos and send them to an old geologist I know, along with the detail that paint doesn't stay on it well. A person should be able to paint basalt.

Non, I agree he should be able to paint basalt, but I believe these were store-bought and treated with some wax or oil...Please do send the pics out to someone you know as now I am interested in what it is!!

It's a rock from a quarry where the loader has a hydraulic leak. Pre-treated waterproof rocks, they should be marking up the price more.
Boco couldn't catch a cold. But if he did, it would be Top Lot.
