was found in a 6-storey building rooftop in a mountain-top in Piraeus - Athens Greece some 5-6 days ago..
It is unusual because I never found before rocks in the rooftop of such a tall building.
The rock is also relatively light-weighted compared to its size.
I am wondering if it is some meteorite fragment from the recent DA14 asteroid close-call pass and the recent meteorite fall in Russia (and maybe in Cuba also)
May some expert geologist identify this rock if it is of terran or space origins?
Thank you in advance for the help!!
ps. I spotted also a second rock in the rooftop but I wasn't able to collect it yet.
