Dear list there is a PhD thesis just finishing on this stone (Getafe) in Madrid museum. So we should have more news in the near future. If it is a meteorite it is an extremely weird one, the closest could be d'Orbigny (no chondrules, not magnetic, lot of large bubbles). The C14 data seems to imply industrial origin but on the other hand various features do not fit with common slag, in particular the testimony of the car driver (the stone hit while he was driving in open country without any trucks, bridge, cliff, people etc. around) who seems to be a reasonable person...
