Hunting north of St Johns, MI in a marsh area a few years back. I arrowed my first buck hunting at ground level at less than 12 yards..what a rush. I spent the morning looking for it as the hit was a little high, but a pass through and he ran down a creek before heading into a thick grassy end of the woods. On my way out to get my sons to help track the deer I found this unique rock (looks to be a meteorite). I left it because it weighed about 15 pounds and didn't want to carry it. Yes we found the buck on our first pass and the next spring I went back and picked up the rock..

If it is a meteorite, it could be worth quite a bit of money.

I would have someone check it that is familiar with the composition of meteorites. It doesn't look like one to me, but it could be weathered over a long period of time. And if it is weathered, it should show some rust as they contain nickle iron and will show rust spots after awhile.

Nope, certainly not Leaverite. Otherwise it would have stayed put. Leaverite is usually tossed into the woods by a sarcastic geologist.
Nor is it Fornicite, for the same reason as above.
Looks good on the doily, though! [Smile]
