🔎 UNIDENTIFIED Hard to contact Geologists maybe here?

I have posted this topic on here before. There are always more someone that has more to add. The first is the very heavy stone that will slightly attract a hanging magnet. It will set off my metal detector. It was very hard to file on the edge of it. The result is that is shines like a new nickel. what I could get off from it was a little bit of grey to silver dust. The outer not filed surface has a very fine looking glitter to it. Scratched dark grey on a white piece of tile. Is there anything else I can do to identify it?

Could it be slag?
Here’s a post I had back in 2007. I thought I had a meteorite.

Meteorite - UPDATE

I found this at the farm today, and it set off my detector like crazy. Is it from outer space, or some kind of weird rock? It is NOT magnetic, which I believe meteors are, correct? It is also very heavy. A lot heavier than a normal rock of this size, and also shiny. It's cool looking whatever it...

Hi oldbattleaxe,
As you state it is magnetic.
If not a Metorite than possible Iron Magnatite?
