[meteorite-list] Looking for Buried Iron-Shale with a Metal Detector

[Paul H]

Dear list members, 

If by some chance I had a hunch where I might 
find some buried iron-shale, is it possible to find 
highly weathered meteorite (iron-shale) with a 
metal detector?  

If so, what is the approximate relationship between 
size of a piece of iron-shale and the maximum depth 
at which it can be detected?  Also, are there any 
special tricks to using a metal detector to look for
buried iron-shale?

Best Regards,

Paul
