Sad the government would try to take away what should rightfully be his.

Instead of hushing up and hiding or fudging data on find location.
Perhaps any meteorites found on federal land, particularly the rare
types, should be video taped, weighed, photographed, and GPS'd. Then
leave them in the field. If the government wants them, they can purchase
the coordinates. For a nominal location fee of course.
