James,
 The link below shows everything you want to know about this meteorite. Says Moapa CM1 meteorite has 28% Fe and only 1.6% nickel
but has NO attraction to a magnet. very cool though.

> On the meteorite men Jeff and Steve showed a meteorite that was non magnetic and seemed to have no iron at all.? Anyone know if it had nickel in it?? How did they determin it was a meteorite?? Has anyone ever heard of wingstars?? Could that stone be a wingstar?? Wingstars have always interested me because they are oriented and look just like a meteorite but lack ni/fe.? Perhaps many meteorwrongs actually were meteorites!?
