I bought it because it was rather nice and I thought it might be raw hematite. However later I thought it might be a meteorite but although it does attract a magnet and passes every test (except chemical analysis) I could find on the web, it also exhibits a very weak magnetic field. I have never heard of this associated with a meteorite. Any ideas of what it might be? Thanks, Ron --part1_19b.34d164d.2a2f8e70_boundary Content-Type: text/html; charset="US-ASCII" Content-Transfer-Encoding: 7bit <HTML><FONT FACE=arial,helvetica><BODY BGCOLOR="#ffffff"><FONT style="BACKGROUND-COLOR: #ffffff" SIZE=2>Hello I would like some information please, I found a strange heavy rock this weekend at a yard sale.
