Hola Jason. Thanks for your reply and pictures. The stone in the first picture, is what we are talking about : flat shaped meteorites....and we second you in that < irons appear to withstand the stresses of entry much better>...so... to have in our hands...a very small flat stone individual....is really a miracle...due to its more difficult chances to get that shape and survive the fierceness of ablation. As soon as we can , will take a picture of our very little flat stone....perhaps a not seldom seen... very, very flatened meteorite. Hasta la vista, larense
