Hi, there were found 55 fossile meteorites in limestone in five different quarries in South Sweden, more than 40 of them in the Thorsberg quarry in Kinnekulle. The quarries a distributed in an area of 300 miles and the layers in that limstone formed in a span of 2 million years 480 million years ago, so that the meteorites don't stem from a single event, but surprisingly they are all of the same type. L-chondrites. They are quite well preserved, I have a picture here and chondrules are easily visible.
