Sassiest Nugget EVER!!!!!!!

From this article:
"The U.S. courts have ruled that a meteorite becomes part of the land where it arrives through 'natural cause' and hence the property of the landowner," the e-mail said."

Another interesting story.
Who Owns a Meteor?
"Actually, the history of the meteorite goes back to a time even before Hughes' discovery, when the Clackamas Indians named it "tomonowos,"" or '"visitor from the moon."' They believed the meteorite was sacred, and before going to war, Indian braves dipped their spears in rain- water that had collected in its craters."
 

What if the property owner does not hold the mineral rights?

Mineral rights do not apply. To minerals that fell from the sky after you own the property.
 

Here's what you need! The PCI 191 Gourmet mining ship.
