Jomo2468 Posted July 8, 2020 Share Posted July 8, 2020 Can someone give me an idea what this rock is? I thought it may be a meteorite but it's not magnetic. So I busted it open. Inside theres... sand. Very dusty. Martian dirt perhaps? Haha. https://i.postimg.cc/QNn7vzZD/0b4f42427f3cd16631d136b24c479264-0.jpg https://i.postimg.cc/RV4r5g7P/1f4f74a863257389ba88118e5a23549f-0.jpg Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Bedrock Bob Posted July 8, 2020 Share Posted July 8, 2020 That is a Moqui marble. A hematite concretion. It is not from Mars but the surface of Mars has many of them. It is iron that forms in sandstone. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
