Silicified listwanite, educate yourself.

i cant see the carbonate in it plus it doesnt react to HCL.

Does it have a foliation orientation? Any indication of an adaxial or abaxial surface? Looks like the fabric of the rock is very this and that way, like it was stretched and then cracked and filled with quartz secondarily (small vein/dike). Maybe if you could gain some clues from its physical appearance you may be able to uncover some of the processes needed to form it, thus narrowing down potential options for identifying it as one thing or another.

If you whack two quartzes together hard enough they will spark. Just sayin'.

it doesnt react to hcl . i can see beryl stratiation. i can see clear glassy veins in the fracture that make wierd crystal faces if you look close to it. plus look how the white vein is cut by green veins in attached photo
