HI;
I am sort of new at this but --it has a nice tight rind on the outside.Thats a good thing. I don't think there are too many light weight stoney meteorites.
the kicker is --in the 2nd picture, if those are little pieces of quartz or some other glassy material you probably have a pretty rock. If you can send it somewhere to get a free apprasial go to it but if you have to pay then do a couple more tests firsts. take a ceramic tile and see if the stone will leave a streak on the unglazed bottom, if you don't have a tile use the underside of your toliet tank top. if it leaves a streak your getting closer to a paperweight, no streak, your closer to a meteroite ,if you want to spend a $20.00 bill you can order a allergy test kit off the net for nickel allergies/ almost every meteorite has nickel in it.the liquid will turn pink if there is nickel in the rock.the kit is called allertest ni. if all the tests are positive take it to the closest college and ask them if they will do the test.HH.Bob
