All,

I couldn't resist playing off the fantastic Franconia
announcement.  Hats of to Asher, Baird, and Ortega!

While trying to replicate their luck at the Majuba,
Nevada find area, I recovered what I think may go down
in history as the smallest Majuba granule likely to
ever be recovered.  With a maximum dimension of about
4 mm and a weight of about 0.5 gms, this one is
really, really small.
