Hello all! Long time reader, first time poster...! Just kinda got into this hobby not too long ago and I found this "rock" at a local park yesterday. Didn't really know what to make of it at first so I just stuck it in my pouch. This is my first post so I'll try to figure out how to post pics. Any tips on identifying this thing would be great! Is it a meteorite or hunk of concrete? The iron looking spot is magnetic as well as some of the other 'stones' in the cluster. I found it using my Tracker IV.

Looks like conglomerate rock, but not a meteorite - sorry.
Here are a few meteorites to look at, and Welcome to the forum from White Plains, NY! :occasion14:

Welcome to T-Net Tracker250! Terry is exactly right. It is a conglomerate rock.

Nice pics. Are those yours? And if so, did any of them come from here in AZ? I hear you can find them here in the Tucson area, but Ive never seen any from here so I dont know what to look for.
