Thank you Michael, those are good sites.
I would add this one:
http://meteorites.wustl.edu/more_info_nonlunar.htm particularly all
the pages with hundreds of pictures of meteorwrongs.
Very educational.
And to Jan Marius, I would recommend you contact Morten Bilet, a fellow
Norwegian. As far as I remember there is no such a thing as sedimentary
meteorites, and all those pictures look like very terrestrial rocks.
Be careful!

Although I'm far from an "expert", they look terrestrial to me, see
http://www.meteorite-times.com/bobs-findings/meteor-wrongs/ and
http://meteorite-recovery.tripod.com/2014/mw/mw.htm.

Michael in so. Cal.
