[meteorite-list] Sale Ad / Moapa Valley CM1 Main Mass and Slices for sale / Response to Count Guido

Hi Guido,

>My questions are. Was the find really made there..in that 
sub-division, or are the coordinates incorrect in the Bulletin...and if 
so, was this done on purpose?

Yes this is the true location of the find. Please, if you have any 
other information let us know!

As with all my other finds; Yelland Dry Lake, Starvation Flat, Coyote 
Springs, Chicago Valley, Blue Eagle Well, Palo Verde Mine ( and many 
more
waiting to be announced) meteorites are still being found at these 
locations by other hunters as we speak. Yelland Dry Lake is a perfect 
recent example.
What about Stump Springs where we made that tremendous 28lb find? These 
must have been the wrong coordinates also?

By the way the best way to get respect is to earn it, not by demanding 
it.

Hello List,I made a recent trip an hour north of my house with three 
other hunters to search the location listed in the MetSoc Bulletin for 
Sonny Clary's rare CM1 find. The coordinates published  put the finds 
location in the near center of a fifty lot residential sub-division in 
Overton, Nevada. To be more precise, in some homeowners side yard at 
the SW corner of Vista View and Cave Ave. Of course, we we decided not 
to bother the folks and didn't hunt the sub-division.My questions are. 
Was the find really made there..in that sub-division, or are the 
coordinates incorrect in the Bulletin...and if so, was this done on 
purpose? If intentional, another question begs to be asked. Is science 
served by misleading coordinates being submitted and knowingly 
published? And further, what would motivate the person who submits 
erroneous information. Count Deiro IMCA 3536-----Original
