Re: moldavite - ?
Also, the meteorites they are looking for on Meteor Men are Iron Nickel Meteorites. I've spent a lot of time running my metal detector over tektite for hours and on every setting. Never gotten a beep out of it, though it could have a small amount of iron in it. Metal detectors usually try and discriminate out Iron. On the other hand, if you run a detector over an Iron Nickel Meteor, your detector will go off like you've hit gold.

Re: moldavite - ?
That's called a tektite , most likely from the far east . Black in color right ? moldavite is green , like beer bottle green. (moldavite is also a tektite ) Good to know the black ones will work .

Re: moldavite - ?
Crazy I just found this old thread. I have a current student who is working with moldavite, and she enlightened me to the fact that pricing is through the roof on this stuff. Anybody sitting on a trove of moldavite might consider holding on just a little longer and then look at reselling. Inner Vision Crystals, a big supplier of true moldavite, is restocking with a 3x price increase this week. Seems the world supply is running low, and anyone treating moldavite as an investment had the right idea.

Re: moldavite - ?
Sounds like hype.... all my rock shop friends still buy and sell it for 1 or 2 $ a gram. (Usually pre sales before doors open to the public at rock shows) I have seen truck loads in the last 18 months.

Re: moldavite - ?
the spiritual healing sect got into Moldavite for it's "healing properties", and the price adjusted accordingly. colombianite is the new one, not sure of it's CTE , but it's a little less expensive
