fara_kayy 1 Posted June 17 Share Posted June 17 Hi every one. I've found a rock with queer appearance and some properties.It hase very weak absorption. The density is about 2.7. It looks that has layer like fusion crust with regmaglypts on the surface. So i sent it for Xrf test; Results are attached. Plus, i've attached two images for comparison between my rock (left) and some meteorites (right). Some say it would be amygdaloidal! But i'm not sure. Plz help me for better and certain recognise Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Mikestang 884 Posted June 17 Share Posted June 17 Those are not regmaglypts on your stone. There is no indication of fusion crust. It looks like a rock you would find on the beach. 2 Quote Link to post Share on other sites

hardtimehermit 498 Posted June 18 Share Posted June 18 Yes your rock looks water worn. Notice how the white clasts are rounded in your rock, but you can see angular pieces in the lunar. Quote Link to post Share on other sites

billpeters 372 Posted June 18 Share Posted June 18 Welcome to the forum Fara kayy. We love newbies. Unfortunately, there is no chance of your rock being a meteorite. Everyone of us had been there. I have a mountain of meteor-wrongs. The Meteoritical Center at Arizona State University in the old days examined over 1000 personally found rocks people were convinced were meteorites, but on average 999 were just meteor-wrongs. Keep looking down. They're out there. billpeters 1 Quote Link to post Share on other sites
