[meteorite-list] possible new illinois meteorite find

[devon slater]

Hi Steve-
I'm not sure what you mean by 'positive' result on a streak test. If a
streak was left (a positive result), then you don't have a meteorite.
If no streak was left maybe you do, but wouldn't that be a negative
result? From your pictures I'll bet you got a dark grey streak.
Maybe next time,
Devon Slater
