Hello Rob, All, Well, I'm flattered by the mention, but I think you're selling yourself short here. It certainly took a great deal of skill/wherewithal to recognize the Lucerne Valley CK4, which I probably wouldn't have bothered to get analyzed -- even if I had, for some unlikely reason, picked

List:   These are great resource sites to help identify possible lunar meteorites.  As you can clearly see, it would be very easy to walk right over one unless it had a nice fresh fusion crust.   http://curator.jsc.nasa.gov/lunar/compendium.cfm   and,

It is true that if you depend on a magnet, you will not find a planetary meteorite. I found the small 50 gram half of NWA 1195 in a Moroccan discard pile, same for other planetary pieces. It was placed there because it was not magnetic and did not have a crust. They sent rocks that bothered

I have been training my eyes for well over a decade to recognize Lunar and Martian meteorites. I can hardly wait to get into the field full-time once I reach my sales goals and can give up eBay. I am planing a super Mojave Desert Hunt this fall, just like I used to do with the Team LunarRock
