      Could be a meteorite. Is it extremely heavy for it's size?
    2. sixred6feather6, 10 years ago
      It is. I was told by someone its no meteorite if its not magnetic.

      1st, by magnetic, do you mean iron is attracted to it or it is attracted to a magnet?
    4. sixred6feather6, 10 years ago
      I was told by a rock collector??? that meteorites are all magnetic.

      Sometimes your best bet is to start searching for minerals of blank county, or some other geographical nomenclature that encompasses where you found it. Rock hounds will often have examples already listed.
