A farmer found this in his field and brought it in today. A University of 
Notre Dame geologist said it contained plagioclase, olivine and possibly 
iron.  He said it probably is not a meteorite and I concur with his opinion. 
I told the farmer I would post the pics on the metlist for other opinions. 
It weakly attracts a strong magnet.  It's obviously nothing like the Blue 
Chondrite, NWA 1941, and it's not Sonny's Blue Eagle, so whadizzit?  I have 
no idea.

Thanks for any thoughts,

Phil Whitmer
