I have to agree with Chris, Michael.
And he just saved you the cost of sending any of these to a lab for
confirmation. Unfortunately for me, I was unaware of the extertise available
on this list, so I spent time, effort and money sending rocks like these to
a lab. Lots of terrestrial rocks ARE attracted to a magnet.
None of these look anything like stoney meteorites. Sorry

Nothing there looks like a meteorite. Iron is commonly found in rocks,
often in high enough concentrations to make them quite attractive to
magnets. Where I live, it is an unusual rock that _doesn't_ show some
magnetic qualities.

I'm new to hunting for meteorites. I found a magnetic rock and from what I
understand this could be a meteorite but I would like some input from
y'all. Go to http://www.ladyofgreys.org/meteorites.htm and please let me
know if there is another explanation for a rock being magnetic and so on
............................
Help is greytly appreciated.
Michael
