Hello all, just wondering your thoughts on this one. It has green rocks mixed in throughout. I'm at work so I have not streaked it yet. This is another one I traded for. Thank you for the help.

Hello all, here are some close ups. I took them with a Jewelers loop. I think it is a 20x. Thank you for the help.

It has no visible characteristics of any meteorite I have seen. The visual characteristics are similar to some basalts and other terrestrial rocks.

Time for more coffee.

Hello all, thank you. The only reason I posted here was because, I did a Bixby picture search and Basaltic Shergotittes were returned as searches. Thank you for your time.

Hello, it appears to be a basaltic igneous rock with feldspar phenocrysts. Completely terrestrial in origin. Would look gneiss polished up! (Bad joke, I know)
