In the Ural Federal University article, http://urfu.ru/en/news/news/5444/ "Now RAS Committee is preparing to apply to the international Meteoritical Bulletin. It is suggested that the meteorite should be called “Annama meteorite”, for it fell near Annama river." So, this is the unofficial name at the moment, but might well become the official name. The fairly elongated debris field runs in the same direction as the river, so any new finds will also likely be within a few km of the river. -- Steinar ______________________________________________ Visit the Archives at http://www.meteorite-list-archives.com Meteorite-list mailing list Meteorite-list@meteoritecentral.com http://three.pairlist.net/mailman/listinfo/meteorite-list
