kjarva Posted September 27, 2009 Share Posted September 27, 2009 Hi everyone, I'm not sure if what I picked up today was a meteorite or not so I am intrigued and thought I'd find out. It sounds like metal when you tap it, is not reactive to a magnet at all and almost looks like a rock at the top and bottom ends. It's very shiny all over and at the rock like ends you can see some little bubbles and crystals of metal. It could just be some slag but I found it deep in the woods and as far as I can find out there were no forges near where I was. I hope this image is ok and you can maybe help me solve my little mystery Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

kjarva Posted September 27, 2009 Author Share Posted September 27, 2009 looks like lead It's not very heavy at all, I thought iron at first but then realised it was far too light. It's seems like it might be hollow in the middle. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
