Is this a possible meteorite?

Hello! I have a rock that I am very curious to find out if it is a meteriote. If anyone might be able to point me in the right direction to confirm I would appreciate it. My thought was that it is some sort of a volcanic rock if it is not a meteorite.

It’s heavy, but I still need to weigh it and compare with other rocks that size

It is magnetic



Photos attached.

Thank you :)

Not a expert, but the lack of a fusion crust makes me doubt that it is a meteorite

Might be a combination of Iron and copper ore.Copper ore greenish hue and the Iron being the brown rusty spots.

Thanks everyone.. It’s going back in the yard and I’ll enjoy looking at it from there ;)
