Why this rock is probably not a meteorite:
This is a big, roundish boulder in New Brunswick. It doesn't have
any hint of a fusion crust. It has at least one planar dike running
through it (left of center). A meteorite this big would not be egg
shaped; it would be more irregularly shaped.

What is it?
A glacial
erratic. It was rounded by rubbing against other rocks during
the Pleistocene glaciation. It was dropped at this location by a melting
glacier.
