Rocky Posted July 24, 2017 Share Posted July 24, 2017 This one made my heart flutter a little, I was on lunch today looking at the ground as always and saw the light grey opening agianst the black outside. Got home, did a streak test to the outside and it barely leaves a streak-faint brown. It doesn't attract a magnet. It's hard to say because it doesn't attract a magnet, to me without window and polish it looks like a polymict eucrite. A guy can dream right. What are your thoughts guys. I have to cut it a little to polish the window so it going to have to wait unless you guys twist my arm enough, I can break out a dremmal to cut it worst case.

It's probably not, I was fully expecting a black magnetite streak, these coated rocks are tricky. This one looked so thin and uniform I thought I'd ask.

Rocky Posted July 25, 2017 Author Share Posted July 25, 2017 (edited) Oh boy this is not even close. And it was a pain to polish on a 90° edge with the lip on that face. Dang pretty coatings LOL. Edited July 25, 2017 by Rocky Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Nugget Shooter Posted July 25, 2017 Share Posted July 25, 2017 Get yourself a rock and mineral test kit or look up how to make your own and use the app I poster in the Rock and Mineral forum with it. Easy as pie and a fairly good kit can be made of common items, https://www.homesciencetools.com/media/reference/IN-TESTKIT.pdf 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
