[meteorite-list] Alain Carion's Burned Car & meteorites

[Anne Black]

No, nothing could be saved.
This happened about a month ago and I talked to Alain a couple times 
since then. He went back to the site with Louis and they tried very 
hard to find anything at all. They found what was once a very nice 
large slice of Esquel, but half-melted, twisted and the crystals had 
all popped out, also a very large slice of Campo, also twisted, melted, 
barely recognizable. And some fragments so badly burned that it was 
impossible to identify them.
So, nothing that will re-appear on Ebay!

And all that for a case of mistaken identity.

Thanks for photos.
Wow this looks terrific. I only hope that some of Alain meteorites 
survived
this hell and can be recovered.
What a unnecessary lose.
