@farmerman,
When I measured the specific gravity I did the following: Tied a dental floss loop around the mineral. filled a glass up with distilled water. Setup the scale in grams, and measured the mineral weight: 157 grams. Then I placed the water filled glass on the scale and zeroed it out. I suspended the mineral in the water making sure not to touch the bottom or sides of the glass, the measurement was 25 grams. 157/25=6.28. The second test the mineral came out at 158 grams, and remained 25 grams while suspended.
I am in Northeast Florida, but the driveway was composed of slag and lava rocks, so it could have been brought in from anywhere.
