Hi all,
I already purchased one of Mark's Buzzard Coulee stones a while ago which is
now on it's way after receiving clearance this week. I highly recommend
taking a look at what Mark has as there are some really nice pieces and I
don't expect they will last very long.
Cheers,
Jeff

Do they rent cars in New York? Amtrack probably runs between NYC and
Washington DC if you are anywhere close. Greyhound Bus could be an option. If
I was as close as you I would even consider hitch hiking.
Good Luck.

I'm looking to acquire a piece of Roosevelt County 084, if anyone has a

As a supplement to Mike Jensen's authoritative Recent Meteorite Falls

Here's some more info on the Lorton meteorite fall. I've compiled a good
bit of information available on the web about our newest meteorite fall

If it's an L-type OC, then the odds favor L6.

I just spent the last couple days in Lorton VA.
No new meteorites have been recovered to my knowledge as of EOD today.
There are still several hunting groups working the area and some of
them are committed to staying for a while.

Nice webpage, Mr Hankey. Great story and photos.

Thanks for the compliments. It was exciting to spend a few days in a

regardless of the hammer stone, meteorite hunting is really hard work
