If you just want to guess, then you need all of the following information, just as a starting point.
Type of rock.
Quality of rock.
Degree of weathering.
Age of the rock.
Part of the world where the rock is located.

The influence of discontinuities, water pressure, inclination of load, etc. all temper the intact rock properties.
Hate to give you advice that leads to ruin. The geologic structure will overshadow the strength of the rock mass.

Some boring logs did not include qu of rock. The geotechnical engineer recommended the nearest boring log with qu values.
