Hi List,

Some of you likely recall a suspected meteorite that hit the news
recently. It was being used as a doorstop on a farm in Michigan and
the owner/media was attaching some astronomical values to it. Well, it
was finally classified as "Edmore" and it is indeed a legit iron
meteorite.

There were also several approvals today in the bulletin, including a
Labenne find from Chile (a pallasite) and some of Graham Ensor's OC's.
