This is the answer I was going to give as soon as I saw your question. The chondrites would have
lain in the desert forever if all us crazy Westerners hadn't started paying for them. After all,
they were useless rocks. The irons, however, were treasures that were, I'm sure, melted into tools
and weapons whenever they were found.
