[meteorite-list] living near a strewfield

[Sterling K. Webb]

Hi,

    MARENGO, an L6,  was found September 1991:
"One stone of 68g was found among rock piles on
the side of a cultivated farm field by James A. Wotal
and his son, Alex. Mineralogy (E.J. Olsen, Chicago):
olivine Fa 25.0^, pyroxene Fs 21.2^."

    WOODBINE, on the other hand, was "found"
by a deep-plowing tractor ("Clunk!") in a single
48,200 gram hunk sometime in 1953. Good place
for Steve Arnold (IMB) type metal detector or
ground radar. Might be more big hunks.

Steve and list,

   Is the marengo a strewn field? I think it was found in a rock pile. I do 
not think it was found in a "field". Am I wrong? Maybe we could go to 
woodbine or maybe even try and find another marengo. Maybe the week after 
Park Forest? Maybe even this Sunday. Serg and I are down to search anyv 
possible strewn field in IL, just let me know when you want to go. If anyone 
else wants to go to any of them they can also contact me on or off list.

Thanks,
Joe Kerchner

It seems that I actually live closer to the MARENGO
strewnfield (24 miles) than park forest.I am also only
60 miles from the woodbind strewnfield as well.So I
have to set the record straight.
