Hi all,
Look out for meteorite scams in Tucson!!
This one is merely a large chunk of iron with dark
greenish glass embedded inside. This "meteorite" is
about 18 inches long and very heavy.
It is not a pallasite!!
When I asked the owner what it was, he nonchalantly
said, "it's a meteorite."
After I assured him that it definitely was not a
meteorite he admitted that he knew it wasn't, but that
he had bought it that way and was trying to sell it as
one.
Here it is..
