Welcome to TNET and hope you will stay with us and share more finds and any rock/treasure hunting stories!

I am sorry to say but I believe you found an Iron Pyrite Nodule, not a Mars Meteorite! Iron deposits and Iron Pyrite are sometimes good indicators to look for Gold, especially so if there is Quartz in the area as well.

1st - I noticed this was your very first post hkm - so, Welcome Aboard! You didn't list your state (or country) in your profile. So, you might consider jumping over to Sub-Forums: Select Your Area.... and selecting location information (i.e., clubs, hunts, finds, legends, maps, etc.) directly related to your state (or country).

2nd - I moved this request from Today's Finds! over to Our Discoveries > What Is It? for more exposure.

In the one picture, you have the main piece and a piece that came off? If it was a meteorite, it probably wouldn't have come off. Separating a piece of meteorite from the main rock is an effort that takes a diamond saw and sweat - it wouldn't have broken off.
