Correct! The Monahans (H5) and Zag (H3-6) meteorites are the only
meteorites known to contain *liquid* water. The water was found in
salt crystals inside the meteorites.

Monahans (1998) contains contains blue crystals of halite (NaCl)
and sylvite (KCl).*

*GIBSON Jr. E.K.  et al. (1998) Monahans (1998) H5 chondrite: An unusual 
meteorite fall with extraterrestrial halite and sylvite (Meteoritics 33-4, 
1998, A057).
