Hunting for Meteorites in Northern Nevada Part 3

Join us for the third and final part of our trip looking for meteorites!
Part one was made as part of a UCLA EPSS booth for Exploring Your Universe, an outreach event that went online for two years due to Covid 19. EYU is back to being in-person again so this is just for fun.
All of the meteorites found on this day appear to be ordinary chondrites. Krista's first find appears to be a type 3 or 4 H-chondrite with very clear chondrules. See 05:03 - 05:07.
We have more videos in the works, so please stay tuned!

Really nice people. I enjoy watching your videos. When is the next video date

Great work.

Do all meteorites have a GPS unit laying next to them ? 🤣🤣

[@MeteoriteGallery]

Mmmm, almost all of them. You'll see in a future video 😅

[@bodhi7945]

Great series, thanks for sharing your finds

[@Bodybuildingcore]

Wow those are some beauties. Do you find your spots based on areas that people have previously found them or new spots with good potential

[@MeteoriteGallery]

Thanks! Both. If someone has found a meteorite in good terrain, there are usually more around. New areas are hit and miss, but exploring is often the best way to find large stones or new strewn fields.

Is it a random lake bed or a known strewn field?

[@MeteoriteGallery]

This was two random lakes. We've been able to map out strewn fields at some lakebeds, but not at these particular locations. There's so much ice/rock movement at these lakes that it's difficult to tell what's going on. Things move, break up, and then get scattered..

Hello..sir can you help me to identify my suspicious stony meteorite?thank you

[@MeteoriteGallery]

Can you put a link here? I help to moderate a few Facebook groups with meteorite researchers and collectors that ID photos for people, but there are dozens of posts per day. I comment on the ones that show up in my feed...

[@MICHELANGELOBOY]

Can you tell me what dry lake this is? Love watching your videos.

[@MeteoriteGallery]

This was a few different ones but most hardpan playas in the SW have many meteorites..
