I see now on the left photo. Hmm... Iron Pyrite? I dunno, the bubbles throw me off. Where did you find it?

West texas near Robert Lee tx

Hmm, were there any Foundry's near the area, maybe from Long ago? I tend to see it is slag too. Even an Blacksmith in the old days was capable of such cast offs.

Hmm... I dunno. Those crystals look like pyrite but the bubbles (especially how they are smooth and shiny inside like that) are throwing me off. I have had pyrite with bubbles but none quite like that shiny one.
