Re: [meteorite-list] Novato meteorite
John, Peter and List, This first part goes to John and Peter. The second part is not for them as they are already keenly aware of and most likely agree with my observations of the market forces. I am pretty certain the one and only piece of Novato that will ever be sold publicly was the small slice that sold on EBay back about 2 weeks after the fall. It is my understanding that all the pieces are permanently in strong hands and some may never change possession again until maybe 75 years from now. Second part: That is the gamble with the new falls. The prices are high at first, then they always come down later...or not. Sometimes they never ever show up again, for any price, in one's lifetime. I would guess that even though the slice sold for, what about $155/gram, I doubt if someone wanted to offer $1,000/g they could not get any of it now from those that have some. Then again, an open offer for $1,000 per gram might get some locals to go out and find another piece! But if a whole new piece showed up, then the value would drop from $1,000 per gram down to around $300/g wouldn't it? Crazy how market forces work isn't it?

Re: [meteorite-list] Novato Meteorite Stick
Your eyes are always the best tool in the shed when meteorite hunting, but when you go to war, you need an arsenal. The next best thing to having 20/20 vision is the Bazooka of all meteorite hunting tools the Meteorite Stick! Leave your metal detectors home! Metal detectors are useless in finding Novato they are not suited for this meteorite or terrain. The Meteorite Stick is the ultimate tool, it's ultra light, weighing in under 2 pounds and has proven to be invaluable time and time again! The Novato meteorite will quickly jump and stick onto the ultra powerful magnet!

Re: [meteorite-list] Novato meteorite find
These brecciated stones and the fall over an urbanized area is reminiscent of Park Forest. Of course, there are many differences as well, but this one might produce more than one hammer stone like Park Forest did, but maybe not nearly as many. Congrats on the find Brien, and good luck to all the hunters in the field. :) Best regards, MikeG PS - is there any preliminary word yet on the type?

Re: [meteorite-list] Novato meteorite find
From the reports I've read of the magnetic attraction, it's too responsive to be an achondrite.
