Mazurek explained that the rare mass of iron and nickel came with his barn in Edmore, which he purchased it back in 1988. The 23 pound specimen is now believed to be the sixth largest meteorite ever found in Michigan. 。
"The story goes that it was collected immediately after they witnessed the big boom and the actual meteorite was dug out from a crater," Sirbescu told the AP. Mazurek added that the farmer who sold him the barn told him the specimen landed in the backyard in the 1930s. 。
As for the future of the find, Sirbescu said meteorites are often sold to collectors or museums. Additional tests on the meteorite are currently being performed, but both the Smithsonian and a mineral museum in Maine have already shown interest in acquiring the meteorite, according to the AP. 。
