[meteorite-list] AD: 40g Park Forest Meteorite recovered in Chicago Heights Illinois

2011-11-14 Thread bill kies 

This is the only Park Forest meteorite I know of that was recovered in Chicago 
Heights Illinois. The location where it was found seems to be outside of the 
strewnfield. If that's the case it could be a hammer that hitched a ride 
somehow and was transported to Chicago Heights. Whatever the case may be, the 
history of it's recovery is interesting.


Here are a few pics. It's about 30-35% crusted and was recovered right after 
the fall. It doesn't appear to have been exposed to moisture.

I'll be taking offers for 10 days. Best offer owns it. Your satisfaction is of 
course, unconditionally guaranteed. The link below shows exactly where it was 
found.

This is the only PF I know of that was recovered in Chicago Heights Illinois. 
The location where it was found seems to be outside of the strewnfield. If 
that's the case it's a hammer that hit a vehicle and was transported there. 
Whatever the case may be, the history of it's recovery is most interesting.

 

I'll be taking offers for 2 weeks. Best offer owns it. The link below shows 
exactly where it was found. I'll post a link to complete photos of the 
meteorite as soon as the sun comes out.
