Ruben,
If you read on it a bit further it says;
"Material such as agate, chert, jasper, petrified wood, obsidian, cinders and other volcanic products are generally not considered locatable under the 1872 Mining Law."
It seems to me these rocks you call meteorites are also volcanics?? So, I will treat them as such and that makes them fair game?
You explain to me the difference in the eyes of a rock hound? I mean these things are just volcanic rocks until a Scientist says otherwise. Right?
Carl
