The initial assessment from Hildebrand's group at the University of Calgary is an ordinary chondrite, type 5 or 6.

Subject: [meteorite-list] Canadian Meteorite Composition?


The Statten Island news paper included this comment within their article:

"While it's not yet known what kind of meteorite this one was, the fragments appear to be made of iron."

Has anyone heard yet from the universities as to a preliminary composition?

Mike
