87_botanist Posted March 1, 2018 I thought you had to hand them over to the government Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
ace1928 Posted March 3, 2018 It only has to go to the government if it is found on public or government owned land, otherwise the owner of the land has ownership of the rock. However even if it is found on private land it cannot leave the country. Have checked all of that out pretty thoroughly. Hey Matt1208 can you flick me an email to [email protected]? Heaps easier for me to email pics and what not. Cheers 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
withdrawl clinic Posted April 30, 2018 (edited) search meteor junction, that forum connects all the meteorite crazy people. as far as I know, it doesn't matter where you find the meteorite, in oz it belongs to the state, same as vert fossils. however, exemptions are often made. at above mentioned meteorite forum, one can read a story about an Australian, who got massively ripped off by the government. I make up numbers here, but he got hundreds of dollars, and a plaster cast, from the state, for a x time thousand of dollars worth of "fallen star". (: I would buy it of you as well, pm me!
