Hi All,

I'm forwarding this link from the German meteorite list.
Obviously, the first real meteorite individuals from the
recent Spanish fall (January 4) have been recovered - 
looks like the real McCoy:

Here's a Google translation of the original Spanish text:

"The author of the finding, according to Garci'a Guinea, has 
been journalist Abel Tarilonte, who the 4 of January was of 
vacations in the north of the province of Palencia.
There he was present at and he photographed the passage of the 
meteor and after crossing several towns of Montes of Palencia 
pasts 9 and 10 of January in search of samples, "he located 
two fragments, of 42.03 grams and 21.76 grams, on a rural way 
of recent compaction where they emphasized by his dark crust 
of iron oxidation."

Thanks to Herbert Raab, Austria, for forwarding the link to
the German list.

All the best, and happy hunting,
Norbert
