Meteorits

Coinseeker 78

New member
I found this rock in my back yard a couple days ago. It is magnetic. Heavier than a normal rock of similar size. It is dark brown to black in color. Do any of you familiar with Meteorites have any idea if this might be one. It weighs 139.34 grams and is about 3X2X1 inch in size. Thanks in advance.[attachment 145663 101_2057.JPG][attachment 145663 101_2057.JPG][attachment 145664 Meteorite1.jpg][attachment 145664 Meteorite1.jpg]
 
Looks like hemitite or magnatite.... HOT ROCK for short. If it registers... 31 31 on your digital you might get lucky to have a metorite. Ive run into a ton of those hunting in AZ. Hemitite is normally kind of tan with black looking crystal looking rocks... where magnatite is darker and magnetic because of all of the iron in it. You may get 00 31 reading because of wraparound on most detectors.
