That's a tile piece from the underside of the wing.

I agree it's probably a tile, but there's no way you can tell if it's "from the underside of the wing" -- such tiles are used on the nose, under the fuselage, and other places as well.

The nose is RCC.
Leading edge of the wing is RCC
Dark tile that thick is on the underside of the fuselage and the wings... the entire vehicle is a lifting body.

Tragic!
