1947: Μετεωρίτης Sikhote-Alin (CCCP)

[Fred Ley]

Well, for meteorite hunting I use my trusty metal detector. Simply place the settings to infinity and start scanning the ground. I do have my geology tools too-the typical geologists hammer, chisels, goggles, etc. Greece does have a diverse geology and that should make for the ability to have a great collection. There must a geology group that gets together and goes out on weekends loooking for interesting minerals or meteorites.

 

I do know one tavern on the road that leads to Aghios Konstaninos from Laurion. It is off the road a bit and on the right hand side as one drives uphill. I believe that it is called, phonetically, "Ermitis".

 

Somewhere lurking in the house I have a nice piece of old volcanic lava from California that I field collected years ago.
