It sure is not very attractive from this collector's
view but none the less, a very important stone from a
scientific standpoint and deserves the very best
consideration including a formal weigh-in. I still do
not understand all of the secrecy surrounding it and
the short recovery story sure is str
This rock is so uncharacteristically meteoric in appearance, so terrestrial
looking, I'd have tossed it had I been the one to find it.
