RE: [Geology2] very interesting mystery rock



Do a streak test, if it IS natural then Goethite would be a good candidate. Also, is it magnetic? Where did you find it?

Jeff,

Is it from an area where there has been any metal smelting? If so, it is likely a slag or speiss. Most of the meteorite candidates brought to me for identification turn out to be artifacts of local industry from the previous century.
