Possible meteor Rocks I sent to get anaylized one can only hope you got a good one

I searched on ebay and found a guy who charges about $40.00

if they were the real deal it would be worth it.
the first one I picked up on the mountain in Arequipa in 2015.
black rock kind of looks like volcanic , I was next to "Misty" volcano and walking up a mountain with a dormant or extinct volcano at the top.
lots of granite boulders everywhere but this was different. it is kind od shiny has a couple of different colored flakes in it and it is slightly magnetic.

the other 2 are supposedly burial artifacts, . they were found together and have similar properties but not exact.
one has a saw mark where it is showing a little rusty patch,
the longer one is more reactive to a magnet, but the one with the saw mark is less magnetic but still a little.
also because the 2 rocks were probably a bolo weapon, it is interesting that they are only 2 grams different in weight. 309.8 and 307.4 grams, extremely similar weight to make a well balanced weapon.

beven though the black rock is bigger it only weighs 260 grams.
there are shiny bits showing in the pits and valleys. of the round ones.

any way like the experts say get them checked out.
but I still don't really know what the analysis means.
are they rare earth or the Big "M"
