I would suspect that the rock will be very sulfitic... rotten egg gas, don't open the bucket in a closed area. Hydrogen sulfide is toxic.

I would rinse the rock in freshwater... hose it off outside and then let it sit exposed to the air for a few days. Once the rock doesn't stink it should be ok to use in your tank.
