Small Metallic Fragment or Mineral Specimen

The item is a small, irregularly shaped fragment, possessing a dark, metallic luster. Its dimensions appear to be very small, likely less than a centimeter in its longest dimension, based on its context on a wooden surface, possibly a shelf, and next to a brick wall. The surface of the fragment is uneven, showing multiple facets and sharp angles, suggesting a natural crystalline formation or a fractured piece of a larger object. The color is predominantly dark grey or black, with hints of silver or bluish reflectivity in areas where light catches its surface, indicative of a metallic or semi-metallic composition. There are no discernible markings, inscriptions, or significant signs of wear or damage that would suggest it is a manufactured item or has undergone extensive handling. The raw, unrefined appearance points towards it being a natural specimen, possibly a mineral, a piece of ore, or even a small meteorite fragment. Its rough texture and angular form distinguish it from polished or tumbled stones. Given its appearance, it is likely a natural specimen rather than a crafted object, and its age would be geological, though its 'found' age is indeterminate.
