Since last year, Fabien, Marie and myself are dedicated to explore the strewn 
field of Beni M'hira in Tunisia.  

Beni M'hira is the first meteorite fall of the 20st century.  Several stones 
were recovered in 2001 just after the event but since then, the area was lost 
and no more intensive research was conducted.

In 2012 and 2013, after many adventures, our group met the main witness of the 
fall (the main mass fell a few meters from him while he kept his herd).  By 
chance, we could find another part of the strewn field which had never been 
explored before. Over the weeks, in the heat of the tunisian desert, we found 
nearly 200 specimen. 

We are happy to present you the book of this adventure, foreword by Alain 
Carion. 70 pages and more than 80 color photos.  You'll get our trip reports, 
map of the strewnfield, all coordinates of these specimen, incredible photos 
and anecdotes, and much more.

You can order it through our website http://www.beni-mhira.com (on main page, 
choose the link Book).  

We hope you'll enjoy our expedition report. The book is a perfect addition to a 
Beni M'hira specimen that you can also buy from the website
