Orange Surface With Brassy Sparkle
An orange-stained surface shows brassy sparkles, likely pyrite or iron oxide.
Meteorite check: Unlikely, because the features look sedimentary or terrestrial. Brassy sparkle is not the bright silvery iron-nickel metal of chondrites.
Not identified as carbonado. Specimens are under study and not lab-confirmed.
