Hello list,

recently we acquired a nice 908 g stone meteorite. The meteorite was kept
by a French lady who lived in Chad for more than 20 years. Before she died
she told her nephew that she saw the meteorite fall sometime in the 60ies.
The only meteorite fall from Chad was in 1961.

Officially there is only one 1kg stone recovered of Djermaia, but Bob Haag
has a 3.7 kg stone according to his catalogue, and Michel Franco has a
2.9 kg stone ( http://www.caillou-noir.com/Djermaia.htm ).

Could this be a 4th mass of Djermaia? I know, it's just a nice meteorite as
long we do not cut a piece for classification... but who dares to decapitate
such a beauty... we don't!

Picts can be seen here: http://www.marmet-meteorites.com/ 

Comments welcome!

Hi All,

I can't hardly wait to ever find and then hold a meteorite that size in my 
hands!


Well, maybe I can not really say that, because I do believe I have a very 
nice size meteorite that I found by myself, well its ONLY about 183 grams!
THAT was not planted by SOMEONE, but the asteroid belt or the planets = nor 
is it a NWA!


Peter, this is a BEAUTY!!!
Its really a very nice piece!

Ach, haette ich es nur gefunden!!  ;-)

Sternengruss, Moni
