I found this rock on the beach
And no one can tell me what it is I think it's meteorite. It's Denzel magnetic but responds to a gold detector and it has a diamond gray center. But the whole rock is sparkly

If sparkly then likely not a meteorite unless salts are crystallizing on it. Best to cut the end off or grind a window so you can see interior features looking for things such as iron-nickle flakes and chondrules.
