Abstract
ABSTRACTThe use of highly sensitive meteorite detectors may be impossible under field conditions readily permitting the recovery of surface meteorites by the use of a magnetic cane. Even when conditions are favorable for the use of powerful and elaborate detecting equipment, it may be desirable to employ a magnetic prod to test the nature of objects located beneath the surface of the ground. It is the purpose of this paper to describe an electromagnetic cane or prod which has proved most useful, not only in visual searches for surface meteorites but also in the identification of subsurface objects located by non‐discriminatory meteorite detectors.
