As Lisa Barnes points out, if the meteor managed to make it to land, you probably shouldn't grab souvenirs. Remnants belong to the state and any discoveries should be reported to Gravity Discovery Centre.

Finding actual pieces of meteor is questionable -- according to Professor Phil Bland, director of the Desert Fireball Network which studies the fallen space rocks, only about 2 to 3 percent of visible meteors make it to the ground.
But Bland is hopeful. He told ABC that considering how bright it appears on camera, the object must have been large. Larger meteors have a greater chance of making it through Earth's atmosphere intact.
"So that is really exciting," he said.
ABC reports that the Desert Fireball Network should be able to pinpoint where the meteor landed by the end of the day.
