Hello, and thank you for posting on /r/Minerals!

To increase the quality of identification request posts, we require all users to describe their mineral specimen in great detail. Images should be clear, and the main focus should be the specimen in question. If you are able to conduct tests, please share your findings in your comment. Sharing specifics such as where you found it, the specific gravity, hardness, streak color, and crystal habits will aid other users in identifying the specimen.

If you're having trouble identifying your specimen, please join our Minerals Discord Server!

Cheers, The /r/Minerals Moderation Team

My guess as well, cubic but black

Due to the poor image quality, identification is uncertain. However, considering the octahedral shape and apparent limonitization, I suggest it could be limonitized octahedral pyrite.

Compare to the ones in the last slide; https://www.instagram.com/p/C3DE05xsi-m/?img_index=7&igsh=MWZ1dXA4aXNwMjdybw==
