Whatever you do, do not send your meteorite to a scientist or university researcher to verify or examine. Meteorites are valuable and desirable, the scientist will find any excuse to steal your rock. Due to their position and perceived authority, they believe they are entitled to your property; do not trust them.

Edit: Downvote me if you like, but even OPs article admits as much: "Please note that any unsolicited specimen sent to UNLV or our department will not be returned." What I say is well known in the geology hobby. There are only a handful of people who have a good reputation for verifying and returning meteorites. At the very least, do your research and try to find somebody with such a reputation first.
