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.  

With a warm smile / d

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,

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

A 22-pound rock that has been propping open a door in Michigan for decades

Michigan University.
