We have had a stone on the stable door for several years that is very heavy and has a strange color/shape. Recently I watched a video on youtube about meteorites and I found that there were some similarities with certain types of meteorites. Not only the color and shape gave similarities but also the fact that this stone contains iron as my metal detector reacts strongly to it. I would like to know more about this stone and I hope that this would be possible. Thanks in advance! Kind regards, Bernd Rector
Answer
Dear Bernd
Unfortunately I have to disappoint you. Your stone will look like a regular iron-rich sandstone. For more information, see question 42668.
