[Rockhounds] CAN YOU REALLY FIND MICROMETEORITES IN YOUR GUTTER? WELL…

[Axel Emmermann]

If the stuff that stuck to your magnet can be crushed, it 's probably non-meteoritic. If it's is metallic (like you find around meteor crater in Arizona) it will probably be malleable, not brittle.

Kreigh/All:

Thank you Kreigh.  I was thinking in the lines of if a small (minute) fraction of a percentage of the magnet material could have come from meteorites.  Just wondering if it could occur in many places worldwide but in minute quantities.
