a wood bit probably will if you use a drill with a low rpm or a large bit but if you use a electric drill it would be fine the rock we use is really soft in the stoneworld of things but to be safe just use a diamond bit like we use for drilling tile they are small and have a spade shape top,using some water wouldnt hurt either to keep it sharp(i work doing tile and other stonework)

if you do use a wood bit it wont be no good for anything else lol if the rock your drilling is real hard then i would not use any bit beside a masonry bit or diamond bit as any other bit will just melt away from the heat.
