Here are a few photos of the rock I sampled. First picture shows the rock itself, Next one shows what the surface looks like up close, and the other two are photos of the interior of the rock. I'm suspecting that the rock either just has high iron content or contains a lot of magnetite, a compass does not respond to it, it is not a lodestone. A strong magnet does produce a small amount of attraction. Last photo is something to give you an idea of what Senator Highway looks like on the way to Palace Station from Mayer.

No, copper would have developed a greenish color on the outside, best I could tell it was iron, probably mixed with something else. Funny part is, White's TDI is not suppose to pick up hot rocks . . . . well it did this one.

I was just looking at a photo of the Murchison meteorite, and I am thinking, damn! this looks kind of like the rock I found up there at Milk Creek! I would like to see if I can get a photo of the outside part of the Murchison meteorite, maybe I have just misunderstood what a meteorite is suppose to look like on the outside . . . . anyway, here is a close up of the inside of the Murchison meteorite. . .
In answer to the last respondent . . . yes, it is heavier than any normal rock, it was no fun trying to get out out of the ground, it was buried up to about 90%.
