Sorry, the item pictured has no visible characteristics of meteorites.

Time for more coffee.

Well if it's not a meteorite do you have any clue what it could be?

Kray and Terry are likely correct, based on appearance. I have, however, seen quartz specimens that have some similarities.

If you want to learn how to identify meteorites, pick up a few guidebooks. I carry several dog eared guides on different things I may encounter when I am in the field away from home.

Time for more coffee.
