The picture quality are just not good enough to appreciate what we are looking at. But it sure looks interesting.

Sorry I have a digital coin scope I've gotta find. I have been trying to use a mix of my phone zoom and even a magnifying glass to show the little spheres but it's not very good pics. It's my 1st potential find like that so I wasn't even certain what spheres I was looking for at 1st lol. Them orange rusty bit are below a black glassy surface

It is a very interesting specimen. I'm going to give an opinion. It is not a meteorite. If you have a university or college near you, see if you can get an appointment to see the geology professor for their advice.

That's a very interesting feature and definitely not something that would be expected in a meteorite. It looks more like a dendritic inclusion of the kind you might see in amygdaloidal basaltic rocks and some volcanic agates.

That rock is begging to be slabbed and polished. There might be more dendrites inside.

Thanks. I have several more that appears to pass my tests and maybe visuals. Not sure how is the best way cause I need more than 1 angle per rock. I guess I can take my time and share 1 or 2 per day or something. I only started hunting them about 2 weeks ago but I've put in several hours dragging the creeks and been trying to research everything to look for. I could use a stronger scope too

That looks like pegmatite to me. Lots of crystals. After this last batch of pics, I want to cut and polish it even more.👍🏻

Another "tite" is all I need to watch out for lol. Just kidding but whatever it is I really like and want to find more of. I've never heard of that kind. I believe this has rusty iron and shiny metal below the surface though. It's easiest to see in video and in person as you turn it. Also very magnetic. Not sure if the kind you mentioned is

I appreciate your opinion. It's the strangest "rock" thing I've ever found. I've never tried speaking to a college professor for anything but for this 1 I will try. I've got pics of 2 or 3 others in another post. I've got dozens of maybe's after weeding out magnetite and slag that I recognize. No others look weird as this 1 but I believe they have a crust. I'm wanting people to point out things that are correct or incorrect so hopefully I can weed out more. I've been trying a test by holding a small handful ( including magnetite and hover the magnet far away and gradually closer. Usually the ones that start wiggling and jumping to it 1st also usually look the most like 1 to me
