[meteorite-list] possible new illinois meteorite find

[Mark Langenfeld]

Bob is right, Steve.  The glaciers brought down tons of magnetite from
the great iron deposits of northern Minnesota and Wisconsin and
Michigan's U.P. The stuff is all over; everything from pebbles to
boulders. And a lot of it weathers dark, looking a little bit like a
fusion crust.

Good luck, but don't get your hopes up.
