Based on the image, this rock appears to be a type of jasper, specifically a variety known as Red Jasper or Brecciated Jasper. Jasper is an opaque, impure variety of silica, typically red, yellow, brown, or green in color, with a fine-grained texture. The rock in the image has a characteristic red and brown coloration with some patterns that suggest it could be brecciated, which means it consists of broken fragments naturally cemented together.

Jasper is often used for ornamental purposes due to its ability to be polished to a high sheen.
