M22protosun,
Did the same thing when I began collecting. Bought several, sold as:
"iron/nickel meterites".... : ^ (
Question..... How did you track the source to "Mekong River"?

Hi list,
when I started collecting meteorites I had bought such item fron an IMCA
member as "NANTAN". The reality is that it is "Mekong River Iron" . The
simple negative Ni-Test shows that it contain not yet more than 0.00001
ppm Ni metal, a MUST of iron containing meteorites.
