mn90403 Posted September 6, 2017 Share Posted September 6, 2017 I went out last night nugget hunting and got a .08g nugget with the Zed 19. After it was daylight I went to the dry lake and looked for meteorites. I've only found one on this lake and it was about 3g. This one was sitting up nice and pretty and I could see it at a considerable distance. It is 13g, all fusion and has a wonderful patina on the entire piece. I'll have to compare it with the other finds on the lake which have been many. 8 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Mikestang Posted September 7, 2017 Share Posted September 7, 2017 Hi, Mitchel, nice CyDl find! However, to me it looks like a typical weathered fragment from the location with no fusion crust. Nice find, tho, congrats! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mn90403 Posted September 7, 2017 Author Share Posted September 7, 2017 Mike, You would know better. It was found not far from the spring area so I guess over the years it has been above and below the water many thousands of times.

Mikestang Posted January 16, 2018 Share Posted January 16, 2018 Made a quick pit-stop at Coyote on my way out to a group hunt in Arizona. I skunked in AZ, but found a little 2.3g chondrite at Coyote. 4 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

gaustad18 Posted January 16, 2018 Share Posted January 16, 2018 Nice find Mike! Just wondering, are these little ones difficult to spot? Or do they stick out pretty well? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mikestang Posted January 16, 2018 Share Posted January 16, 2018 It was almost dark by the time I got there so I was just poking everything with my magnet and this one hopped on. During they day you can pick them out by eye. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
