1d10 Random Space Finds From An Asteroid Table

1. A single silver floating moonlet sphere made of solid silver flying around the asteroid in perfect orbit. Created from the heart of a damned sun and worth a fortune. The thing brings very bad luck to those who find it though This artifact is actually the petrified heart of some ancient elemental demon who still bellows his rage chained in some nameless black hell at the center of an event horizon. 
2. A scattering of alien nano lifeforms glittering like jewels upon the surface of the rock. The complex patterns that they make is indicative of their function as ancient alien mining micro life forms. 
3. This isn't an asteroid but complex fossilized ancient terraforming equipment. The technology is worth a fortune. 
4. Its a rock surrounded by thousands of micrometeors, each one contains micro nugget of  gold.  All together their worth a fortune but they'll crack any space helmet that they smack into! Very dangerous and precious rocks. 
5. A single two foot long brick of solid green jade from ancient China on Earth, the artifact is 12,000 years old. Who knows how it got here. 
6. A strange glowing box that might be a 'slaver box'!  The box emits a tachyon pulse every twelve hours like clock work
7. A wreck alien space capsule with its dead occupant still inside. There is a 20% chance of the thing being an ancient space mummy and trying to slay  anyone examining the wreckage. The capsule is  of a very advanced design. 
8. The fossilized remains of an ancient alien dinosaur like creature worth millions to a super science center. There's a 4% chance of a human skull fossilized with the piece. 
9. A deposit of space worthy iron ore worth a cool 200 credits to a ship yard smelting plant because of its purity. 
10. A human astronaut's remains smashed into the rock by a giant claw like hand's impression! His identification packet is still with him even though its fifty years old.
