I can‘t Identity these rocks. Can you help me? One has a very visible gold trace.

Hi treasure hunters!

Thank you in advance.

I’m a Newbie in treasure hunting and, to start, I bought a Bounty Hunter tracker.
The detector arrived today and I was able to tune it and, in a funny way, on my backyard I found 2 funny rocks. They seem to have no iron (not attracted by magnets) and they are very dark.
In color, They remind me of a meteorite (I have a real one at home) but I’m not sure.
The funny part is that one has a very cool gold trace. (Don’t believe that is gold but it is cool to see).

They were found using only tone mode.

I took some pictures with macro to help.

Thank you in advance, for you help.

Obrigado!

Hi and welcome to the forum, take a steel knife and press hard into the gold area, if it indents and doesn't break it's gold, if it breaks or chips it pyrite, I don't see any meteorites but take your hose and pressure wash that last photo specimen and maybe scrub it with a brush, it looks mineralized, maybe some malachite or chrysocolla I think I see which is very good sign for finding gold since they are secondary copper minerals and also pyrite unfortunately but that's a really cool find for kicking up dirt in your backyard.
Oh and another way to know if that's gold is to crush them to fine powder size then pan it out.
