Meteorite rocks believed to be worth £1m found in potato field

Robb Elliot, a meteorite hunter, believes he has found meteorite rocks worth £1 million.

He was hoping to find fragments of the Perth meteorite which fell in 1830 but instead, in a potato field (he declines to announce the location), he made one of the UK's biggest finds. He will only say that he discovered them in fields between Errol and Balbeggie in Perthshire

He says the meteorite chunks are worth about £50 a gram, which is equivalent to gold, and Elliot plans on sharing the profits with the farmers who give permission for a wider search on their fields.
