Hi Greg They certainly look for Australite Tektites on the dry lakes in WA. Australites can be picked up, kept, sold, sold abroad. You can't touch the Meteorites in Australia though. If you find one then report it to the Museum. For this reason I doubt that people go out specifically looking for Meteorites as it would cost a lot for zero reward.
