AW: [meteorite-list] Hainaut-Bettrechies total kilo weight ?

Interesting to see that there is such a large mass in a private collection. I guess it is from Brussels Museum as the weight has changed in about the same order. I will correct the repository information in MetBase accordingly.

MetBase data:

8425g: Lille, Nat. Hist. Geol. Mus.
1264g: Brussels, Inst. Roy. Sci.
699g: Paris, Mus. d'Hist. Nat.
23.9g: Mainz, Max-Planck-Inst. Chemie
11g: Helsinki, Geol. Mus. Univ.
0.7g: New York, Amer. Mus. Nat. Hist.

Best wishes,

Jï¿½rn

Hello List,

Here is the last inventory of Hainaut meteorite -(H3-6, fall 26 november1934)

Lille, Musï¿½e d'histoire Naturelle: 8425 g

IRScNB-Brussel's: 801 g

Paris NHM 699g

Vincent Jacques collection: 411 g

Liï¿½ge University: 20 g

Vienna NHM: 10 grams (approx)

Zelimir Gabelica collection: 8-10 g (approx)

A. Lucas collection: 4,5 g

Total = 10 370 g + approx 1,5 Kg => hole in the main mass, probably fell in Gerpinnes (Belgium) 26/11/1934, observed fall, but not recovered (from a 11/1934 Police report)

Best regards,

Vincent JACQUES
