I'm not a space expert, but I don't think there were space rocks that early...

I’m assuming they meant meteorites or something as the moon landing did not happen until three years later. (It could also just be poor translation as the articles I found were all in Spanish) The article I found was from the museum that houses the collection (they did a public exhibit in 2012 when he passed). Apparently the US and Chile had a great relationship when it came to NASA.
