The answer depends on the density of the rock. A cubic foot of pumice, for example, can have a mass of around 15.6 pounds whereas minerals rich in metals such as iridium will have mass exceeding 1200 pounds.

Naturally the weight of stone/rock varies according to the type of rock. But, on average, one cubic foot of rock weighs in the neighborhood of 200 pounds.

How much does 1 cubic ft of aggregate weigh?

If you are going to buy river stone/pebles/rock from supplier they use the "formula" Cubic Yards x 1.25 = Weight in tons. They then sell it by the ton. (say $300 per ton) But this is an approximation. If it is one very big river rock it would be a good approximation, but even then it would depend upon the density of the rock eg granite would require a bigger constant (the 1.25) than a Sandstone boulder.
