It is nearly impossible to tell a meteorite vs. a meteorwrong from pictures alone.

Does a magnet stick to it? Even slightly? If not, it is likely NOT a meteorite.

If you still want more proof, buy a test kit or take it to your local university.

If a magnet sticks to it, give it the toilet tank lid test next.

I'm pretty sure that's slag. That stuff is scattered about along the old RR grades in Colorado and I believe it most likely came from here. Globeville Story: Globe ASARCO
