I don’t know which side of the wall you’re drilling on, but you’re likely running into the cement tile board and thinset layer. If it’s on the other (hardwood) side of the wall, it could be self leveling compound.

You guys get much asbestos tile in your area?

Yeah, I’ve run across a good amount in my commercial construction career around the Midwest. Funnily enough I just ran into some in my own bathroom remodel this past weekend.

Not a concern here. Cement backerboard was introduced in the 1980's, well past the asbestos days.
