[QUOTE="user 4386, post: 289363, member: 4386"] Me too. To me it looks like it has a texture inside that might be diagnostic, but you might not want to cut it to see. Ni_Fe meteorites (with SiC) are magnetic. Even stony meteorites would probably give a small response to a hand magnet. SPecific gravity is always the best way to start - unfortunately after that you usually need to either analyse a piece or cut it. Have you resolved it by now? [/QUOTE]
