Nice clear pictures of a polished face will go a long way to help determine (not conclusively) that you have an ureilite. Mendy

The first thing I did was drop it in a jar of nitric to clean it up a bit, just kidding, actually the first thing was to see if it scratched a microscope slide, which it did with ease. Question, is my glass test grounds enough to feel pretty confident that the stone is a Ureilite?
