Hi,
Still won't work. I guess you will have to type Adelie Land Meteorite
in the
search box on the link I posted.

Hi Ingo,
I had always thought it was by the Japanese in the 1960's, but I came
across
this reference in the citation for asteroid 4456 Mawson:
Named in memory of Sir Douglas Mawson (1882-1958), Australian
geologist and
Antarctic explorer.
...
During 1907-1909 he took part in the British Antarctic Expedition led
by
Shackleton, and from 1911 to 1914 he led the Australasian Antarctic
Expedition; on the latter was found the "Adelie Land" meteorite, the
first
to be discovered on the Antarctic continent.
This agrees with what you just said. Thanks!
Ron
Hi Ron!
The first meteorite found in Antarctica was Adelie Land (Dec. 5,
1912)
found by Francis Howard Bickerton, who was a member of the
Astralasien
Expedition on that time.
Cheers!
Ingo
