Hi Paul and List,

Henderson, E.P. and Cooke, C.W., 1942, The Sardis (Georgia) meteorite.
Proceedings of the U S. National Museum. vol. 92, pp. 141-150:

Henderson and Cooke (1942) report an extremely weathered octahedrite
(Sardis) from Miocene sediments in Georgia although whether or not the
meteorite fell during the Miocene is uncertain; the terrestrial age of this
meteorite was determined by C-14 methods to be in excess of 10,000 years
(Buchwald, 1975, p. 1085).


Cheers,

Bernd
