John1131 1 Posted February 11, 2019 Share Posted February 11, 2019 I came across this form after searching for ways to determine a metorite from a rock. I have a rock that resembles a metorite. I've had it for a few years now and am hoping I find some help with it. I will find the forum to post it in and out pics there any help would be appreciated Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Mike Furness 1,513 Posted February 11, 2019 Share Posted February 11, 2019 Welcome to the forum John. Lots of meteorite guys here ... BUT ... hard to tell from a photo. Have you tried the State University Geology Department? Quote Link to post Share on other sites

John1131 1 Posted February 11, 2019 Author Share Posted February 11, 2019 (edited) I never really took the time to try to find out what it is exactly I collect alot of rocks that are unique. This one just stuck out more. It's not magnetic at all even with a strong magnet. It rusts tho and is conductive. I can scrub the rust color off then a few days later it comes back. And it's really dense. I tried to take a metal file too it and could barely scratch the surface. Edited February 11, 2019 by John1131 Quote Link to post Share on other sites
