Hi Martin,
Thank you for sharing this depressing account. It pains me to hear
of meteorites being neglected, but I was unaware this institutional
neglect was so widespread. I recall hearing recently about one
of the main masses of Cape York sitting outside in the open without
any protection
Main Mass: That´s it Ken!
One day we need a group of people, who are able to sort out all the

Hi Ken,
I know you didn't wish to argue the point however it is an interesting point

many instances for pairings, etc. that are just some of the problems that one goes
through when trying to sort out
Dear Adam and List Members,

Dear Phillip and List,
The main mass is larger than 2.5 kilograms and Amgala is currently being
studied at NAU which should release results soon. Three different type
specimens have been submitted and it looks like it will classify as an H3.8
rare Polymict Breccia with exotic clasts. Be careful
