If you need to know the current market price for meteorites, see the meteorite price guide (To be informed when the meteorite price guide is updated, please suscribe to our newsletter). He has studied lunar samples and their chemical compositions since 1969 when the Apollo 11 astronauts collected the first lunar samples on the Moon and brought them to Earth ( Haskin et al., 1970 ) >A Photo Gallery Of Meteowrongs (Prepared and by Courtesy of Randy Korotev) >How To Recognized a Meteorite (prepared and by courtesy of Randy Kototev) Do you think you might have found a meteorite? Carefuly look at these two links prepared by Randy Korotev* from the Washington University (One Brookings Drive, St. Unless you find an incredibly rare meteorite, its value probably won't make you rich. The researchers argue that the Maryborough meteorite is much rarer than gold. The preparation of a meteorite, included cutting work, polishing and etching is very important for some meteorites as pallasite. Carbon dating suggests the meteorite has been on Earth between 100 and 1,000 years, and theres been a number of meteor sightings between 18 that could correspond to its arrival on our planet.Oriented meteorite give the best shape for maximum heat deflection and the way meteorites burned under the stress of entry showed NASA the best way and shape.
Oriented meteorites were studied by NASA when developing the manned space program to design the re-entry vehicle. The value of a meteorite is commonly by two or three for a really oriented stone and possibly by ten for a perfectly and well preserved stone.
On the total weight you have to consider the quantity available for the private market, some meteorites are just locked in Museum and will be never again traded for some high scientific value meteorite. Quantity available on the private market.The total weight known for the classification or a particular meteorite is a very important parameter with sometimes more influence that the classification.This parameter as influence on the price is the more sensible and can quickly change, some vary rare classification very rare ten years ago are now quite common as Howardite and Rumurrutite for example, so the price just move down quickly since few years.
The classification, see the meteorite classification table.The value of a meteorite, commonly known as the price for one gram, depends of many characters of the stone: Few meteorites are more rare than gold and some are even more valuable than diamonds, mainly meteorites are priceless for sciences but the majority aren't worth much at all.
