Re: [meteorite-list] Michigan meteorite
Hi All, A fun story but a couple of corrections are in order: The Maine Mineral and Gem Museum is not interested in purchasing this iron which did not—from all appearances—arrive in the 1930s. Have a great weekend.

Re: [meteorite-list] Michigan meteorite
Absolutely agree Paul. Unless they can be verified by numerous independent eye witnesses, then stories like that are really no more verifiable than a child’s fantasies. Furthermore, since stories are unreliable, and it hasn’t been officially classified yet, I don’t see any reason why it could not be a transported specimen from another known find. For example, the Trenton irons from Wisconsin. Not very far from Michigan at all... I suppose time will tell though. Cheers, John A.

Re: [meteorite-list] Michigan meteorite
I saw this as a headline on CNN homepage It even had billing over Elon Musk and Kavanaugh when I saw it. After reading the report on its being excavated in 1930 or thereabouts from a crater after a loud crash and being warm to the touch etc. I had to laugh! Now if you had collected a freshly fallen Siderite moments after impact would it look like it has been weathered for 10,000 years ! No it wouldn't I have no doubt about its authenticity but the story is far fetched Paul Gessler -Original Message- From: Jack Newport via Meteorite-list Sent: Friday, October 05, 2018 1:00 AM To: meteorite-list@meteoritecentral.com Subject: [meteorite-list] Michigan meteorite Hey list, A 22-pound rock that has been propping open a door in Michigan for decades turns out to be a meteorite valued at $100,000, according to Central Michigan University. https://edition.cnn.com/2018/10/04/us/meteorite-doorstop-michigan-trnd/index.html?no-st=1538726141 __ Visit our Facebook page https://www.facebook.com/meteoritecentral and the Archives at http://www.meteorite-list-archives.com Meteorite-list mailing list Meteorite-list@meteoritecentral.com https://pairlist3.pair.net/mailman/listinfo/meteorite-list --- This email has been checked for viruses by AVG. https://www.avg.com __ Visit our Facebook page https://www.facebook.com/meteoritecentral and the Archives at http://www.meteorite-list-archives.com Meteorite-list mailing list Meteorite-list@meteoritecentral.com https://pairlist3.pair.net/mailman/listinfo/meteorite-list
