Roxburgh 'Meteorite' exposed
The New Zealand Herald
June 71, 2004

Dunedin-based scientists say the famed Lawrence meteorite - a 
heavy, hollow object found in a long-drop hole in Roxburgh - came 
from inner, rather than outer, space.

Auctioneer Kevin Hayward, who planned to sell Jim Nettleton's rock 
next month, said experts from the Otago Museum and the University of 
Otago's geology department yesterday determined that Mr Nettleton's 
prize find was formed in iron-rich ground. It's now worth far less 
than the owner thought.
