Dave,

In a career working frequently with basalts, I've
never seen megascopic free metal. I also have never
heard of the same. Basalts are, by nature, iron rich,
but for all practical purposes, most of the iron is
present in silicate phases. This thing isn't a
basalt. I don't have any better ideas. I think it
might be what the seller claims it to be----
