Idriss Posted February 10 Share Posted February 10 This rock was found on subdesert erea in Morocco near the mountains. It feels heavy and I opened a window in it but I don't know if the shiny little things are metals. So what do you think? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Morlock Posted February 10 Share Posted February 10 Have you done a streak test on it? 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DarkSilicate Posted February 10 Share Posted February 10 I would guess it will leave an orangish red streak. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Morlock Posted February 10 Share Posted February 10 Meteorites will not streak. My guess is you found a piece of hematite. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Idriss Posted February 11 Author Share Posted February 11 It does leave a red streak but it can be wiped out. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Morlock Posted February 11 Share Posted February 11 A streak is a streak whether it can be wiped out or not. Most likely hematite. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
