Wow, they stick out like a sore thumb don’t they? I wish meteorites were that easy to spot here in Georgia!

Subject: [meteorite-list] New Nevada / California meteorite finds

 

Hi List,

 

I would like to post a couple of pictures of new Nevada and California meteorite finds. The picture of the meteorite on the dry lake bed is 38 grams. The picture of the larger meteorite weighs 1.282 grams. On the second trip I recovered numerous fragments within a three foot radius of the larger find . All of the fragments were found with a metal detector ,and additional 222 grams. Both of them appear to be stone chondrites  but are different.. The smaller meteorite shows metal/iron and chondrules. The larger meteorite shows metal/iron and chondrules but has a brecchiated matrix and numerous chondrules are of various colors and sizes. Geoff was nice enough to provide me with this great link.

 

 

Sonny
