Note the line toward the end of the article:

"The family is donating the meteorite to the Museum of Natural History
in Oslo."

Will the Johansen family get a tax write-off?  ;-)  Independent of the
ultimate
classification, that write-off in the U.S. could be quite substantial,
given
that it's part of a hammer fall, and it could turn out to be the main
mass
recovered.  --Rob
