Slightly magnetic
Feels heavy, but is less that 100 grams
looks like iron but its stone.

Re post in the meteorite forum and let Terry Soloman take a stab at it.

No, not a meteorite. Looks like scoria (igneous extrusive rock). Sorry.

Hey Terry thanks for the answer, scoria is a volcanic rock I assume, Just one question, this rock was found in Tamil nadu, India.. There are no volcanoes here. Could you explain how it got here?
