Ran the Nox800 over some old diggings the other day.......quite a few hot rocks, which I threw in the bag for the Dolly.
When i got home, scrubbed up a rather unusual looking one....and it's got me stumped.
It's about 14X10X5mm, and weighs 2.1gm.....the yellowish tinge caught my eye, which is why it went in the tub for a scrub.
It appears to be a real mixture of stuff, with some obvious crystals embedded, ranging from almost clear through to red and black.
My detectoring mate reckons it's part of a meteorite.......wouldn't discount that.
Don't know what the yellowish coating is.....guess I can live in hope
Would appreciate any opinions.
