AhAhAh amazing!
a chunk of some kind of man made glass :)
I don't think about this possible solution of the enigma!
Thanks!

Francesco,

There are so many things that scream "terrestrial" about this "lunatic" rock. Almost, 47% glass(SiO2) and 20% of aluminum oxide!? This is likely man-made and my guess is that this is a byproduct of glass manufacturing.

It is best to avoid this type of material altogether. It appears to be
another self-paired stone being offered up as a planetary piece. Most
collectors realize that without formal classification by a recognized laboratory and name assignment by the Meteoritical Society, the material
is consider just a rock and not a meteorite. In other words, it is
worthless. Many collectors have been fooled already by the influx of these stones and are asking for refunds after realizing, there is no secondary market for this material.
