Hello All, Michael G. wrote: "So I am thinking that there must have been a surface fracture that extended down into the interior of the stone. Weathering products intruded through this crack and the brown 'inclusion' is probably just a clay-like replacement mineral." "clay-like" => phyllosilicates are clay minerals! .. and *if* it is preterrestrial, this might be an extended area of phyllosilicates, saponite, smectite or something!
