Hello Dave, All,
I doubt that the stones that you have found were glacially deposited.
The larger one appears to be fusion crusted and relatively fresh on
the inside; it seems highly unlikely that it could be 13,000 years
old, terrestrially speaking. Ohio's far too wet to preserve a
meteorite that well for so long.
Congrats on the nice finds, regardless. Get 'em analyzed and in the books!
Regards,
Jason
