Hello Anne, Jim, and List,

My databases also yielded only negative results.

The approximate coordinates of Auburn, CA are:

38� 54' N / 121� 04' W

The only meteorite that comes even close to these coordinates would
be the anomalous ataxite "Shingle Springs". But this ataxite was
f o u n d  in 1869 - too far back in time.

Imperial, an H4 chondrite would be another candidate - it was found in
1908, but its respective coordinates are: 32� 52'N / 115� 35'W and it
was found in "Imperial County".

Best wishes,

Bernd
