This us probably not the best place to ask but are there any rocks that are like a silvery purple with a mica esque reflectiveness? I keep finding them but cant ever describe them well enough to figure out what they are.

Maybe ill try to get a picture.

Sounds like lepidolite, kinda flaky?

This actually seems really close color wise. And yeah kinda flaky.

The stones i have tend to be smoother than the google images i see for it but that could just be due to them being river stones obviously.

Lilac is a much better colour descriptor
