1st - I noticed this was your very first post - so, Welcome Aboard Arlafever42! You didn't list your state (or country) in your profile. So, you might consider jumping over to Sub-Forum: Select Your Area.... for information (i.e., clubs, hunts, finds, legends, maps, etc.) directly related to your state (or country).

That green and yellow mound section is translucent. Also, there is a few black specks in the crators. Like a beryl shaped black rectangle. Also the nose of it is translucent red. Has opaque colors as well? I don't feel like it's jasper. Also, a knife didn't scratch it.

Absolutely no visible characteristics of meteorites.

Time for more coffee.

Jaspers have a typical hardness in the region of 6.5-7.0 on the Mohs scale. A decent quality pocket knife usually has a hardness of about 5.5
