List,
Maybe this has been asked and answered (sounds like a lawer thing) and maybe
not.
Since I am relatively new to collecting and certainly not an Expert in any
area of meteorite study (with the exception of magnetisum (from the sky
magnetic VS made a magnet by processes here on earth).
Yes, Sweden is well known for it's fossil meteorites
dug up in coal mines.
You can google them but they are clearly hundreds of
millions of years old, and you can still see clear
chondules in pieces.

Hi, Pete,
Quick answer (with footnotes) is YES.
There a deep sediment meteorite fragment from
Chicxulub -- 66 million years old. There's an iron
from Oklahoma, Lake Murray, more than 100 million
years old; photos here:

Hey!
I never thought that I had to correct you in the field of meteoritics.

Sweden does have a couple of old coal mines but the fossile meteorites
is found in lime stone quarries.
I have also been shown in the roof of a mine (south of Kumla) of a

Hi Pete, IF you are looking for an affordable sample check out Al Hagounia.
It matches your criteria and it is an Enstatite. NAU recently posted a
paper on their web site that nicely covers what it is, the terrestrial
alteration it has undergone, and it's location in the layers of

tireless efforts and for sharing with us. Before the realization that NWA

Anyone know where I can get my hands on a slab?

Hi Tom,
You asked, What did you think when the first blue meteorite (NWA 2828) was
cut? I thought, What the heck is this stuff?!
I had first purchased a very small amount of this material, cut it, and
thought it was the strangest meteorite I had seen to date, if it was a
meteorite at all.

Hi Matthias, and All,
You asked:
isn't presolar extrasolar too, in a certain sense?
Not necessarily, at least not how I understand it. I've read some abstracts
and papers that say, e.g., that not all presolar nano diamonds in Allende,
and other carbonaceous chondrites are considered to be of

Here's the Australian scientist you want to send the suspect meteorite
in your link for authentication. Note he really does have prior
meteorite classification experience, but you won't like his conclusion.
That's a very, very interesting subject indeed - thanks a lot, Norbert!

Hi folks!
Can someone help me compile a list of meteorite types
that originate from well-known asteroids and/or solar
system bodies.
For example, we have lunar and martian meteorites of
various types. And angrite is under debate as
possibly
being from Mercury. Diogenite is from asteroid Vesta.
I've been trying to collate just such a list Mike, so I'm keen to see
what comes back. Here's my part-list so far - it's absolutely not to be
considered definitive, but may spur further reading:

I believe the paleo meteorites we are thinking about were found in a limestone
quarry of Ordovician age in Kinnekulle, Sweden. If memory serves, only after
the tiles containing the meteorites had been polished and installed in a
building were they identified for what they were. Scientist went
