Some of the brown (presumably
collected on the surface) SEEMS to have remnants of crust, over lipping
etc.
99% of the black stuff ont he outside of the brown material is simply the
oxidized metal veining that is seen int he matrix of this material. the
material weathered preferentially allong the vetal veins and hence broke up
allong the veins as well.
this stone must have been KILLER looking when it was fresh, but imho it
still looks pretty darned neat even today.
