[meteorite-list] Smallest Complete Meteorite?

[MEM]

I believe there was a .3 gram Canadian find on a snow bank.  It was only noticed 
by virtue of  the contrast and if I recall the finder was a technician/scientist 
in the astronomy/space program field(???) walking out of his work to go home.  I 
don't know the name or where-abouts, I only recall reading the story.  This 
would so far as I know be the smallest find/fall single stone class ever 
documented.
