Yes. I have seen some, but no clue as to how it was done.
I would think so I had a friend who did headstones many years ago he used a die grinder with diamond bits.
Here is a website for cnc bits https://www.stylecnc.com/cnc-router-parts/Tapered-diamond-3d-deep-relief-bits-for-marble-granite.html

So it's doable. That's great news. I'll have to look into this further.

Just ran across some videos on carving rock on youtube. The one I looked at showed a guy carving a crab on top of a rock, and it actually looked like a live crab. Check out rock carving or carving rocks, something along those lines. I knew rocks could be carved, but not to detail like that. I'll stick with wood tho.
