A possible relic left behind before the Yupik people? I think so, the other 2 crew members did not agree

Hi Guys
^ As a past student of geography, I always take a few moments along the way to respect the local land formation. I try to connect the natural formations like a puzzle. This was a unique 'quartz knuckle,' with ice still intact. Does anyone know what the purple rock is? Looks and feels like basalt. > ?
