Please help me ID this metal, non-magnetic rock!

Hello, all!

Can you help me ID this rock? It is made of metal of some kind (which?), and it gave me a good, high signal with my metal detector. This was found in Northern Utah.
It is not magnetic at all. There are little black chunks of shiny rock embedded within this rock; it looks like little pieces of obsidian rock.

Anyone have an idea what this could be?
Thanks so much for your help!
 
Does it feel light for it's size??
I'm thinking that it looks like melted aluminum.
 
It actually feels fairly heavy for its size. I suppose it could be melted aluminum. I really don't know.

I just smashed it a few times with a hammer because my curiosity got the best of me. Here is a picture of it now.
