Jim K Posted January 1, 2010 Share Posted January 1, 2010 HERE IS A PIC http://www.postimage.org/image.php?v=Ts1F4pR0Hi, The photo is kind of small to get a good look. Is a magnet attracted to it? Most meteorites have iron in them. Cutting or grinding a spot on the rock would reveal the metal flakes. Here's a link to meteorite identification that you might find useful.http://meteorites.wustl.edu/what_to_do.htmHappy New Year!Jim Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Regmaglitch Posted January 1, 2010 Share Posted January 1, 2010 Hi Wezmuller, Could you please post more photos of this stone? If possible, please have pictures that include the whole stone and also a close-up view. There is not enough detail in your single photo to even make a wild guess. Who kinows what you might have? Good Luck, Ben Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Regmaglitch Posted January 2, 2010 Share Posted January 2, 2010 Wezmuller, Just repeat the way you posted the single photo. I think you can post up to three photos for each post. Thanks, Ben Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
