Hi Bernd and all,
Your right Bernd, the Camel Sweat story does go with the EL Hammami
Meteorite. No doubt other many specimens have been packed out by
camels also.
Good to see you on the list Bernd!

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).

Yes, they were packed out by camel and the
camel sweat story was a part of the story.
Doesn't the camel sweat story belong to El Hammami (H5)???
Best from Germany,
Bernd
