Hello,
Thanks for providing a forum where people can share their education/passion and help others. Speaking of helping out, could I please get some feedback on this rock I came across in the southwestern part of the U.S.? I picked it up because it didn't match anything else in the area. It sat around my place and I eventually put a magnet to it and it was magnetic. I also did a scratch test on ceramic and it didn't leave a mark. In my not very scientific way, I thought it was magnetized sandstone. Maybe it's weathered magnetite? Attached are a few photos. Please let me know what you think when you have a moment.
Hopefully you can see the images.
