The Robert Elliott Meteorite Collection
Four-and-a-half billion years in the making

Rob Elliott is sponsored by White's Metal Detectors

Many of the meteorites pictured above were sold at two very succesful auctions, attracting worldwide attention in 2009 and 2011.
Many meteorites remain in my current collection and I'm always looking to add more.

New British meteorites
Several meteorites have been seen to fall on British soil over the centuries. A fireball crossing the sky and with meteorites
being picked up soon afterwards. Meteoriticists refer to these as "witnessed falls" or simply just "falls".

Only TWO meteorites have been found by chance in the UK, un-seen, un-heard or maybe just un-noticed, yet waiting to be found and recognised.
Meteoriticists refer to these chance discoveries as "finds".
......I found them both!

The last meteorite found in the UK is
The Hambleton meteorite - found 2005, Yorkshire, England

40 pounds of space rock - a rare stony-iron mixture known as a pallasite

~

The Glenrothes meteorite - found 1998, Fife, Scotland

Small but perfectly formed - a cute little stone meteorite

The Leighlinbridge meteorite - fell 1999, Leighlinbridge, Ireland
