Rock in Northern Cyprus

Towards the end of the panhandle on the mountain ridge sits a strange rock. My husband thinks it fell there, maybe during a  volcanic action, I think it's been pushed up. It has the most unusual colouring. The Greek call it red rock, the Turks call it yellow rock. It has a strong mostly red but also yellow marking, sometimes looking like 'Raspberry Ripple'

What can it be?

Currently a month away from completing the EGEC, course which is in the Federation of European Mining Programs.

A Confused Rock - Your thoughts please on the age and mixed rock type !

 

Can you please help to identify the age and likely type of this confused rock outcrop that forms part of a property foundation seen in Spain [Betics]

The exposed face above is over 30 feet wide, 8-10 feet high, and 8-10 feet deep at least.  Shows vein compression and folding.

The next two picture are of the same rock as seen on the side and top. A very confused rock.

Your thoughts please...  Mike
