Congratulations on your new find Todd wish we were there where there is no
white stuff. We were hunting in NV the last few days & woke up this A.M. to
8 inches of fresh snow, bummer the hunts over for now.
Go out & find more.

Subject: [meteorite-list] Congratulations Todd Parker
Hi List,
I would like to congratulate Todd Parker on his new Arizona chondrite
discovery. I had the pleasure of hunting with Todd Parker and Larry Atkins
recently in the Arizona desert. While Larry and I were sitting on a hill
taking a water break with Brix, Larry's phone rang with a very excited
Todd on the other end. We could see him down below us, so we quickly
rushed over to see what he had found. We saw a beautiful chondrite in
situ. Todd was recording his find and preparing to take a photograph when
Brix ran up and gave the meteorite a sniff and a lick. Todd was the first
one to see the meteorite and Brix was the first (and only) one to lick it!
: ) It is a 30-40 gram chondrite with fusion crust and visible metal
flakes on on the broken end. It looks like Lawrence may have another
meteorite to classify from Arizona. Congratulations Todd!
