You are probably thinking they should all look like nickel-iron or stony meteorites, but they don't. I had one that looked pretty much like slag ~ found it in an old Indian campsite near home ~ everything was gone but their stone work, and the de riguerre hunk of meteorite.
Actually I’m wondering why there doesn’t appear to be any charring.
The possible explanation I can come up with would be that it was the inner part of a rock that exploded in the atmosphere and managed to survive till its speed was slow enough that it wouldn’t cook.
“looks like a carbonaceous chondrite”
Sounds like something you’d have lanced.
And meteorite that just fell would have a fusion crust including a carbonaceous chondrite. That is not a meteorite he is holding in that picture.
