May I ask...what makes you believe it might be a meteorite?

 

[Arthur75]

yes, yes, the rock was found in an uninhabited place in the forest with a metal detector. It is heavy, metallic and attracted to a magnet.I believe it is possible to see in the photographs, some common characteristics of this type of sidereal rock, but I am not an expert ...intriguing is this crystal, or quartz attached to it ... I would be happy with some light!

Hi Arthur and welcome to T-Net. I can't help you with an ID, but that is a very interesting specimen. I'm guessing someone here will be able to offer up some informed ideas.

Tanks. Silvermonkey!I will wait, we are very curious if it came from outer space!
