[QUOTE="Nugget, post: 195730, member: 3"] On my last prospecting trip I found a few interesting rocks, one in particular caught my eye. It looks and feels a little like metal however it's non-magnetic and if I was to have a guess, I'd say it's not metal of any sort but I could be wrong though. It's probably around 3/4 the size of a 5 cent piece and has a decent weight to it compared to other rocks of similar size. I'll put it on the scales and post up some dimensions and weight shortly. Any idea's? Also I found that cool little square rock, pitty it's only about 4mm thick. Edit: Size = Approx 1cm across largest face, shortest face is around 8mm. Weight = 1.89 grams [img]https://www.prospectingaustralia.com/forum/img/member-images/3/1444349570_rock1.jpg[/img] [img]https://www.prospectingaustralia.com/forum/img/member-images/3/1444349570_rock2.jpg[/img] Cheers, Nugget [/QUOTE]
