In 2015, during a routine gold-hunting expedition in Maryborough Regional Park near Melbourne, Australia, David Hole uncovered an unusually heavy reddish rock weighing 17 kilograms. Initially believing it to be a valuable find of gold nuggets embedded in clay, he embarked on a multi-year effort to open the rock using various tools, including a rock saw, an angle grinder, a drill, and even corrosive acids. Despite his intensive efforts, none produced any discernible effect. Seeking expert advice, Hole presented the rock to the specialists at the Melbourne Museum, where he received astounding news. The rock was identified as a meteorite, estimated to be around 4.6 billion years old. Melbourne Museum geologist Dermot Henry described its distinct sculpted and dimpled appearance, shaped by atmospheric entry, stating, "That’s formed when they come through the atmosphere; they are melting on the outside, and the atmosphere sculpts them." This meteorite is believed to have originated from the asteroid belt between Mars and Jupiter before breaking apart due to a collision and ultimately landing on Earth. Carbon dating indicates that it may have been on our planet for a period ranging from 100 to 1,000 years. Historical records of meteorite sightings between 1889 and 1951 add to the intrigue of this celestial fragment’s journey to earth.
