The interesting thing is that we discussed an identical looking stone just a few month ago in a german kitchen knife and cooking forum. When I saw the photo there I was also convinced that it is a LI stone. Anyhow, when I got it for testing, the behavior was different to the LI hones I have. It is finer and a bit slow compared to others and the honing feeling is different.
However I still think it is a sort of LI.
Here is a photo of the stone:

Peter,
Thank you. I was leaning towards LI but only have personal experience with this stone.
How would you describe the feeling of the one you tested? Mine feels like a heavy draw on a strop, much more of a grabby drag feeling than almost all of my other natural stones.

I would second that LI.
