Yes, Adam, it is an H chondrite. Alain Carion confirmed this in the TV report Martin -Ursprüngliche Nachricht- Von: Adam Hupe raremeteori...@yahoo.com Gesendet: 09.10.2011 22:08:25 An: Adam meteorite-list@meteoritecentral.com Betreff: Re: [meteorite-list] Meteorite fall in Draveil (Essonne), France? My guess is that it is an H Chondrite judging from the nearly immediate oxidation. It displays rust almost as quickly as Peekskill.

Re: [meteorite-list] Meteorite fall in Draveil (Essonne), France?
I just found out that there are interesting similarities between the last French fall in February 2002 (Alby sur Chéran, Haute Savoie, France) and this one: This is said in the Bulletin about Alby sur Chéran: http://www.lpi.usra.edu/meteor/metbull.php?sea=Francesfor=placesants=falls=valids=stype=containslrec=50map=gebrowse=country=Allsrt=namecateg=Allmblist=Allrect=phot=snew=0pnt=Normal%20tablecode=458 stone with black shiny fusion crust was found on March 22 in the roof of a building, in a hole in the insulating material. Water was first observed leaking from the ceiling inside the building at 8:30 am on March 18, 2002. The stone had broken into 2 fragments (238.9 g and 13 g) upon impact. - found in the insulation material of a roof because water was leaking through - meteorite has broken into two fragments The Draveil meteorite was also found in the insulation material of the roof, broke into one bigger fragment of 87 g and a few smaller ones of 18 g, making it 105 g altogether, and was discovered because of leaking water in the house. By the way, Soltmany was also a 'roof hitter'... Let's go out and check our roofs... ;-) Martin PS: Yes, Mike G., France IS very friendly! -Ursprüngliche Nachricht- Von: Michael Gilmer meteoritem...@gmail.com Gesendet: 10.10.2011 00:19:28 An: Benjamin P.
