I have a new hunt here and im not sure about it and i would like to show to you brothers and sisters to exchange knowledge about it. For me my idea i guess is a pearl fossilized but im not sure as i told you i found it in a river its really heavy and i should clean it more i will show some photos to you guys

King regards

Looks like some kind of banded agate or some-such. :headscratch:

 

You may wish to tell us its size by providing a scale, and take a few more pictures in full light.

Happy hunting,

Sorry I don't see any fossil here...

This looks like a piece of cave flowstone (calcite) to Me, but could be an agate as others have said.

Can You do a hardness test? Does a nail scratch it?

My id of calcite is based on the granular appearance and lack of conchoidal fractures.

I bet that would polish up quite nicely, it would aid in its identification too.
