Nurullah Afacan, married and father of 3 children, who lives in Kayaönü village in Tokat’s Artova district, grazed his animals in the field 3 months ago, while one of the sheep got stuck on a mossy stone.
According to the DHA report, Afacan realized that the stone was different from the others.
Afacan sent the piece he took from the stone, which he thought might be a meteorite, to the Research and Application Center of the Ege University Central Research Test and Analysis Laboratory.
17 DIFFERENT ELEMENTS DETECTED
In tests performed here, the stone with 17 different elements was determined to be a meteorite.

Wants 200 thousand dollars
Nurullah Afacan, who sold stones with a total weight of 70 kilograms for 200 thousand dollars, said: “One of the sheep’s legs caught on the stone. The stone was upside down. Normally the surface of the stone was covered with moss. When I picked up the stone, I realized that it was not compatible with nature, the results of the analysis revealed that the stone was a meteorite.
We return to the area where we found the stone. We picked up the broken pieces. We also find other pieces in an area of 500 square meters. We currently have 5-6 kinds of stones. This stone glass cuts the mirror. We did not test our other stones. Those who fell on the stone burned it. Those that fell to the ground did not break, but buried themselves in the ground. There is a client at the moment. We gave a price of 200 thousand dollars. They offered us $ 180,000. We haven’t given it to anyone yet, “he said.
