Jeff and list,

I agree with Jason and Zelimir, it is a pyrite nodule.

Jeff, all,

I fully agree with Jason. This is a cluster of pyrite crystals, probably
(partly) transformed (oxidyzed) into "limonite" (a partial pseudomorph),
hence the color.

Clusters like that one are common on our mineral collections. They can be
sometimes showy and thus quite appreciated.
But this is definitely a meteorwrong.

Wishes,

Zelimir
