Many of you have had a similar experience. You take a sample into the local geology department and most times they don't have a clue or give you the wrong answer. Most wouldn't know an iron meteorite from an iron concretion. It gets even worse with stones.

But to be honest this specimen is more similar to meteorwrong than to a typical iron meteorite :) so maybe someone from Univ. just look at it and say what he say's million times before "its not meteorite, its a slag". Just my feeling.

Re: [meteorite-list] Rocks from Space Picture of the Day - April 20, 2011
Marcin There is nothing about this meteorite that suggests meteorwrong. solid iron, no cracks, no holes. Just a guy who likely has never seen a meteorite declaring that it was not a meteorite. It seems most geologists dont know a thing about meteorites. Michael Farmer = Yep I know this too. Thats the other paintfull problem that peoples who know nothing about meteorites think they could be experts just only they know most of rock on our planet. But we are here and we are ready to stop them. Even Zaklodzie was first tested here in Poland by some "specialists" and throw avay as meteorwrong. That could be a waste :) -[ MARCIN CIMALA ]-[ I.M.C.A.#3667 ]- http://www.Meteoryty.pl marcin(at)meteoryty.pl http://www.PolandMET.com marcin(at)polandmet.com http://www.Gao-Guenie.com GSM: +48 (793) 567667 [ Member of Polish Meteoritical Society ] Sent from my iPhone On Apr 20, 2011, at 12:29 PM, "Marcin Cimala" wrote: But to be honest this specimen is more similar to meteorwrong than to a typical iron meteorite :) so maybe someone from Univ. just look at it and say what he say's million times before "its not meteorite, its a slag".

Marcin, Very good point. The science needed to be done to verify it. It's like Sir Ernest Rutherford said. "All science is either physics or stamp collecting". I'm glad people take Farmer seriously or this possibly would never have gotten verified by science.

This iron weighs 8.5 kilograms. They were told it has sandstone inside by a geologist. The finder almost threw it away when told it was not a meteorite!
