[meteorite-list] Possible Meteorwrong

[Joshua Tree Earth & Space Museum]

I was sent these pictures of a possible meteorite find in southern 
Indiana.It's hard to tell from the blurry pictures, but it looks like iron 
oxide. A geologist told them it was a meteorite because it attracts a magnet 
and has chondrule like formations. I was told it had flakes of metal but I 
couldn't see them in the photos.

Any ideas?

There's another guy in southern Indiana who believes he found another piece 
of Harrison County, an L6 that fell in 1859. Wouldn't that be pretty much 
eroded away by now, even if it was shocked like NWA 869?
