Hello List,

I went out for a walk today and found a most interesting rock. It was
light tan,
nearly white looking against the dark stones and I didn't think much of
it, just a concretion or something, until I bent over and looked at it
closer and saw flow lines. It doesn't attract to a neodymium magnet at
all, none, but I do think it may be a weathered chondrite. It certainly
is
oriented and the flow lines are obvious. I'd like to take a peak inside
but haven't been able to decide how to go about it yet. It weighs
around a kilo, just guessing.

I hope all are well, happy hunting!




Sincerely,
