Well you need to give some identifying characteristics before anyone can ID it for you.\n\nDoes it have crystals?\n\nDoes it rub off in your hand when you hold it?\n\nWhat color is it? Does it contain more than one color?\n\nDoes it have layers?\n\nIs it heavy for it's size?\n\nGive some more info & maybe we can help.\n\n:)

1. The difference between rocks & minerals\nhttp://www.rocks-and-minerals.com/ gives a simple but good explanation of the difference between rocks & minerals.\n\nIt is not easy to tell the difference between rocks & minerals because there are so many kinds of them. It takes years of study to be able to accurately identify a mystery rock and even then rockhounds want to know where the specimen came from. \n\nRocks\nAll rocks are made of 2 or more minerals, but minerals are not made of rocks. To see some pictures of different kinds of rocks, click here.\n\nRock Words: There are many common names for rocks and the usually give you an idea of how big the rock is. Here are a few:\n boulder - large, taller than a person \n rock - large, you could get your arms around it or a bit smaller but it is usually jagged, broken off a bigger piece of rock  \n river rock - round rocks that are along the edge & at the bottom of fast-flowing rivers  \n stone - medium, you could hold it in two hands  \n pebble - small, you can hold it with two fingers, could get stuck in your shoe, usually rounded  \n sand - made up of tiny pieces of rock, grains of sand  \n grain - tiny, like a grain of rice or smaller, often found on a beach  \n dust - really fine powder that is mixed in with sand or soil  \n mountain - huge, giant hunk of rock that is still attached to the earth's crust, doesn't move, tall  \n\n\nFor an excellent Rock Identification test, click on http://www.bwctc.northants.sch.uk/html/projects/science/ks34/rocks/key.html\n\n \n\nMinerals\nA mineral is the same all the way through. That is one reason we speak of a sample or a specimen rather than a rock. There are about 3000 known minerals on earth. Al rocks are made up of 2 or more of these minerals.

It looks like an opal to me.  Check the hardness, if you can inscribe it with a steel knife it is softer than 6-7on the Moh's hardness scale, and probably an opal. if the blue mineral scatches glass it is harder than 5.
