[meteorite-list] Erg Chech / Mali

[Dr. Svend Buhl]

Dear Jeff, others,

The analysis and classification of the Chergach meteorite was completed in 
February and the Swiss lab submitted the results to the NomCom of the 
MetSoc. Radionuclid measurements have confirmed that it is a fall different 
from Bassikounou and more recent, which backs up the finder's reports on the 
time of the fall. I may also say that I submitted samples of the common 
lithology as well as impact melt breccia samples and that the lab studied 
both lithologies. Because the data has no officcial status yet and the 
NomCom has yet to approve them I can not publish the complete write up at 
the moment, but I am sure we will see Chergach in the MetBul database soon.

Cheers

Svend
