Is this a meteor?

[Sin Nunu]

Hi!
I found a weird rock and I thought it might be a meteor. I tried to find something similar to it but I couldn't find any. All I know is that there are iron, rock and iron-rock meteors and this one is non-magnetic. Can anyone identify it? Thank you!

Do you have a picture of the complete rock?

Should a hand model for finds.

Hello, I am very sorry but I don't get what you meant to say.

Weird-looking, but not a meteorite. You don't get vesicles like that in meteorites. Looks like it might be volcanic or some kind of industrial melt-product.

As mentioned not a meteorite.
Also a FYI on terminology, a meteor is a extraterrestrial/space rock that is still in outer space, once a meteor lands on earth it is then a meteorite.

Ironstone nodule would be my guess.

Agree not likely to be a meteorite. The vesicles are the giveaway.

Volcanic iron ore mixture.
