[meteorite-list] Re-2: Titicaca meteorite-- phinally, photos

Hello Mike, Matteo and List,

"Peru works differently than the rest of the world"

What a pity, what a pity!

"The rest of the meteorite is 4 or 5 meters under sewage water"

Yes, no chance under such circumstances. The Kirin (Jilin) meteorite
main mass was found at a depth of almost six meters and this was only
possible because the ground (loessal clay) was still almost frozen ...
quite unlike this waterhole filled with filthy water :-(
