Wouldn't the head of the Kamil expedition, Dr. Luigi Folco, be the qualified
authority to comment on the photos he and his team produced
Here is another webpage on the new Egyptian iron Gebel Kamil and the impact
crater it created:

Note the additional pictures of the beautifully regmaglypted 80kg main mass,
some of (what i believe are) Mirko's slices, and of impact

Yep, and the 17.5-gram endcut pictured on the right
now resides in the Bernd Pauli meteorite collection :-)

I had this post as a draft earlier - seems a perfect time to post it:
Hello All,
The initial expedition did in fact find more than one *complete
individual* from the fall.
If you take a look at the following website, you'll see links to two photos:
The effects of sand abrasion (corrasion) and chemical weathering (corrosion) of
objects on a desert surface, apart from other factors, depend considerably on
the texture and composition of the original surface, but also on the dimensions
and the depth to which an object is buried in the soil.
Hello Svend, All,
I probably have as much experience as you do with desert irons; I
agree, but look at the photos. The first shows an xxkg half-buried
individual (the 83 kg?) that clearly protrudes more than 5cm above the
ground. Furthermore, you can tell very clearly that it is
well-embedded
I happily acknowledge your experience Jason, but that is not the point. I can
only speak for myself, and I do not base such statement on a photo without any
chance to study the evidence in situ.
By the way, the original source of both pictures you quote is the Museo
Nazionale Antartide,
An 83 kg meteorite specimen found 230 m due north of the crater showing
regmaglypts
largest recoveredmass ca. 80 kg
Wouldn't that imply that this is *one* and the *same* mass?
.. maybe photographed from different angles?

Most likely so, Bernd.

Hello Bernd, Svend, All,
1) The background for each photo is significantly different. One is
loose sand. The other, large rocks.
The photos were therefor not taken in the same place.
2) The photo on the left is pretty clearly the iron before it was
moved. It's well-embedded in undisturbed

Hello Bernd, Svend, All,
1
it seems quite likely to be the same
individual.
Good night everyone,
