Here is some of the latest B.S. #1 This natural specimen composed of a kind of meteorite whose name is siderolite. Really a god given gift. It appears to be metallic iron composition, with some yellow and white inclusions apparently rich in. It is a term that refers to a stony-iron. It has been discredited as the real original is unknown. Most meteorites burn up in the Earth's atmosphere. Of those that make it to Earth, only about 1% are siderolites. http://cgi.ebay.com/2-1LB-massive-SIDEROLITE-METEORITE-nugget-CHINA_W0QQitemZ6612507584QQcategoryZ3220QQrdZ1QQcmdZViewItem #2 iron meteorit with gold and other precious minerals.
