Many thanks for your kind comment, John! As exciting as meteorite recovery is, and as much as I love the adventures, the occasions when our work has added new information to the science of meteoritics have been the high points for me. Thank you for watching and commenting. Cheers from Arizona to Brazil!

Can i send you something?? Heres a question. What would an 11lb chunk of the Chicxulub Meteorite be worth ?? 11 lbs . Mostly iridium.

sir, I never get bored watching videos about meteorites in your place. Turns out a lot of meteorites ..👍🏿👍🏿👍🏿 Good night and have a good rest.

Hey guys, love your show! I have stumbled upon several meteorites and I'm super excited about my find. Where can I sell them? Or are you interested in buying them?

keep safe.every meteorite hunting..I wish u can give me a metal detector...hahaha

A bit different to the Swedish Balls I get at IKEA!

Ha, ha! Nice one! I used to live in NYC and we'd occasionally make the trip to IKEA near Newark Airport. I was always delighted by the fact they served Swedish meat balls at a furniture store. It was clever, fun, and amusing. Are you a "Babylon 5" fan, by any chance? There's a great Swedish meat ball reference in that show. Cheers!

No way is it worth digging for 4 hours and only make 18000.00 bucks

I'm only thiiiiiiiiiiiiiiis much jealous.

Hello Geoff, do you know what is the name of the metal detector that Thomas rented you? Best regards.

@GeoffNotkin

3 ай бұрын

Hello and sorry for my slow reply! Yes, the detectors we got from Thomas were made by the German company Lorenz. Very good gear, but there is a something of a learning curve to using it correctly. Steve was very good at doing that kind of homework and testing. Good luck if you decide to try one!

Hi guys i have looked 1 other kind of stone but I don't know how is this...what kind of rock..

what a REAL gentleman, if you know what i mean.

I think I found a meteor crater... About 200' across. Inside diameter. Looks like a big blast crater. Im in Phoenix. Not farrow you guys. Plus I have a bunch of stones to show you if you have time...

100% agree. The show was filmed from 2009 through 2011. While HD copies do exist, this is what we have to work with at present. I hope to upload higher res copies in future. Thank you for watching.

Is there a meteorite that does not stick magnets to it?

Yes. I think. There are some meteorites which do not attract magnets. Please confirm with experts

Metal detectors are illegal in Sweden! WTF! Sounds like North Korea!

Not quite. You need a permit to operate a metal detector in Sweden. The purpose is to protect abundant Viking-era burial sites and other ancient or historic artifacts. Actually, quite sensible.

Hey Geoff, it's an honor! I respect your point of view but I'm from America so I don't quite see it that way. Makes me wonder what I kept thinking when I watched this episode. How in the hell were a couple of commercial meteorite dealers like you and Steve able to come in and remove valuable meteorites from the country to then sell for profit. Doesn't sound like something this country would allow you to do. Meteorite treasure doesn't seem that much different than Viking-era treasure. People are selling both for profit.

@GeoffNotkin

Thank you for the reply! Well, you do ask a most interesting and important question about value and ownership. In most countries it is legal to search for meteorites, just as it is for gold or diamonds. You don't need a permit for a detector here in the States and people look for lost rings and watches on the beach, gold nuggets in the wilds, and everything in between. Is there a difference? I suppose so, because meteorites potentially have scientific value and old rings probably do not. But ... there are already *many* Muonionalustua in academic collections and it has been fully examined and described. I don't believe there is any need or interest in futher academic study on that meteorite. Except, perhaps, for the fascinating topic of its post-fall dispersal by glacial action, and finding more pieces helps shed light on that unique situation. So, the authorities in Sweden evidently do not feel that any scientific value is being lost by commercial or private hunting in the Muonionalusta strewnfield. And we do ALWAYS abide by local laws and regulations. It's the right thing to do, but you also -- obviously -- can't do anything illegal on a Discovery series that aired on all seven continents ; ) I guess my answer to the Sweden question is: "Because we're allowed to." Meteorite hunting is not regulated in Sweden, except for the issue of the detector permits, so if we're willing to put in the time (hundreds of hours) hunting and digging, and the expense of traveling to such a very remote location, is it okay for us to keep or sell what we find? If we don't find them, somebody else will. I'm not being argumentative : ) It's a very interesting topic. Another thing to consider: If meteorites are not recovered, they will eventually -- 100% and without a doubt -- decay into nothing, over time, in Earth's moist atmosphere. And many or perhaps most academics, with their teaching, publishing, and research responsibilities do not have the time or resources to go out in the field and do what we do. In fact, I once had the opportunity (thanks to Steve) to take a very famous academic out in the field and help him find his very first ever meteorite. And he was in his eighties! It was an amazing experience. Also, in some of our most significant episodes (Gold Basin, Morasko, Whitecourt Crater II, Odessa Crater), we donated every piece we found to the relevant museum or academic institution. And here's something I think you'll approve of: The largest Muonionalusta we found in Season Two -- 69 lbs -- is still in my collection and will never be cut up or sold as long as I live. Oh ... and did I mention the expense of shipping them back from Sweden? I paid for that ; ) I really appreciate the intelligent observations and questions. Please follow up if you wish. Cheers and respect -- Geoff

@GeoffNotkin Very interesting. I just assumed that because you and Steve are kind of "Celebrities" , maybe you were able to get some special permission to remove the meteorites. I'm surprised their laws are as liberal as they are. I guess this is considered to be a very abundant and common meteorite. It's actually my favorite meteorite. I don't collect meteorites but they fascinate me. I do collect watches and I have a few with this meteorite as the dial. Don't get me wrong, I am on your side. I collect dinosaur teeth and have been for about 25 years. So the arguments you were making about why meteorites should be collected and not left in the ground, I hear you brother and agree with you 100%! I don't believe as many profession/academics believe that only they should be able to enjoy these beautiful natural wonders. The way you feel about meteorites, I feel about dinosaur teeth. They are absolutely beautiful works of nature. Thanks for responding to me. It's been a real treat talking to you.

Home swed home

Soooo how did they split this cost of this thing up and I am surprised the Russians of all people let someone take something like that out of the country. I wonder how they go about all that type of stuff. I know the treasure hunters that find sunken treasure go through nightmares with whatever foreign countries water they find the treasures in. Usually the country stakes a claim on it with rights to the territory from which it was found.. Just curiosity. lol

@GeoffNotkin

Excellent question! We did need to leave our finds in Russia for a while and request export permits via friends in academia. Same with meteorites we found in Canada and Australia. Some countries have regulations about taking meteorites out, others don't, so it's important to do your homework. Thanks for watching -- Geoff
