Hi
This AD is dedicated to Annie Black :)

Im sure everyone like to see rarest or the rarest recovered samples of 
Carancas meteorite.
There was many specimens recoveded by Mike Farmer, Bob Haag, finally even 
Campo King Hans Koser. But I have never seen any sample with more than 
10-20-30% crust or slickensides (shock veins).

Here I have even 100% complete specimen. Impossible ?
I also thinked that this is impossible since whole mass hit the ground and 
make famous mud hole ever and remaining samples changed into dust clound or 
5mm fragments scattered around.

But I was lucky to find this samples and I cant belive it that they survive 
in one piece.
Ok, no more talks, lets enjoy photos.
