What have I found?

[Gray Ghost]

I always keep my eyes open when i hunt and scout and have found something, and I am not sure what it is. I hope you can help!

this rock was surrounded by disturbed, fresh dirt when i found it. I walk this area a lot during hunting seasons. It is abnormally heavy, seems to be metallic, and appears porous. I know zero about meteorites but some pictures I see look like maybe... thoughts?

I have no idea but it looks similar to this one. I'd like to hear more.

The first looks like an ironstone or iron ore rock to me. Are they magnetic? If confirmed as meteors, I believe they are valuable to geological collectors.

Guessing some form of hematite.

Looks like what many know as pig iron

I would consider it to be a meteorite until it's proven otherwise.
They can have a really wide range of appearances, and unique samples are being found all of the time.
The only way to be sure is to have it tested which can cost $125.
If you can show it or a photo of it to a university geologist then perhaps he would offer a free opinion.

Below is a Colorado outfit that will provide a visual evaluation for $50. which will be credited toward the $125 XRF analysis fee if needed.

If it is magnetic I would also consider it a meteorite. Especially with it being around freshly disturbed ground.

Looks a lot like part of an ancient petrified Crow Indian poop.

Looks like iron ore or slag.

Wrong, it's a mummified toad.
