In a couple of the pics it shows after I cut a corner off with the chop saw. It's very heavy.
However, it doesn't read like silver or lead on the metal detector if that means anything to you.
I found these in central Texas near Pearsall. I have seen some photos on the internet that cause me to think they are Tektites. They look like they were formed by some sort of molten process. Anyway, I was going to see if I could find a blow torch and heat one of them as a preliminary test. But perhaps you can keep me from burning myself.

Thanks Dustedyou and I am so glad you are back. I posted in Gold Prospecting a post name ( dug out of ground and unwashed ) I would like for you to check out for me if you can or I can post pictures in this feed for you to see. Hit a quartz vein in a bank with backhoe and busted some rocks and gold colored chunks and nuggets and powder fell down and the clay was full of this stuff, so I put some photos on there and hade not washed them at the time but have washed them since then. When I pick them up to handle the bits of gold colored stuff fall of in my hand if im not careful. Looks like to me buttery globs on the rocks. Not sparkley and did a color test and color was yellow shiny. It has a dull yellow shine.
well Lead or Galena in natural form can contain Silver lead gold and platinum.. it also has a lot of sulphur,, but its heavy? odd it has a blue tinge to it it may be a telluriide magnesium arsenic,gold silver etc etc.. do a paper marking to it (use it like a pencil) and post that pict.. I'd have it assayed either way.. get a complete breakdown.
It's safe I found it in the creek fully under water
Coffee Dusty? Thisis a picture of a closed - sealed - room our men just opened up. There were various skeletons, two of which were almost intact, along with a stone axe and a broken Spanish Sword. What is the green stuff that appears like moss, remember this room probably hasn't been opened since 1630's. I haven't been able to get back up to Tayopa for a while Hows the neck my friend?.
