Hi All,
I have an artifact which I'd like to find out if whether or not it's
made from a meteorite.
It has the same characteristics as the mesosiderites in my
collection, those being NWA 2932 and Toufassour.
A magnet pulls equally as hard as it does on my whole stones, and
looking at it under a loupe it looks to be stony.
But I could be wrong about all of this, wouldn't be the first time
that's for sure.
The problem is I don't have the nerve to damage it such as by
cutting and polishing.
So I ask, is there a non invasive way of making a determination?
I want to let anyone interested get a look at it and ask for their
comments, advice, or opinions.
Check it out and let me know what you think.
Here's a link to some images:
