This is a lovely example of the logical fallacy called Appeal to Authority.
Einstein is no more qualified to offer an expert opinion on this matter than
your average Joe. His opinion should not impress anybody.

Subject: [meteorite-list] Try divining rods over a large iron
I know very well that many scientists consider dowsing as a type of
superstition. According to my conviction this is, however, unjustified. The
dowsing rod is a simple instrument which shows the reaction of the human
nervous system to certain factors which are unknown to us at this time.
