Small defect/hole. Shouldn't be a problem unless it moves or grows. Also, If it turns darker upon contact with water it's a fungus

Probably from a water droplet. They act like magnifying glasses and burn a tiny hole into living stones. Shouldn't be a problem since lithops get a new coat every year
