Wow, I learned a lot reading about this. It's expanded my, 'what to look for' scan when out west.

Thanks for the links and info.

I would walk past that one. I've never seen one like it.
Like GIB said, time to read. Thanks for posting.

Always helps to know what you're looking for!

Terry, was the meteorite giving his detector a signal? Was that what made him suspect it
might be something special. It looks so much like a common rock. Worn rhyolite.

Yes, the meteorite does sound off like a "hot rock." It does not look like an ordinary rock. I wish I had better pictures!
