[meteorite-list] New Nevada / California meteorite finds

[WAHLPERRY at aol.com]

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.
