List,  I just got back to town after a couple of days so I may have missed
the answer, but the "fossil" meteorites  Lake Murray and the other
Scandinavian ones fell in the ocean.

Hmmm seems I remember hearing about another possible meteorite hitting a

The Alaskan meteorites Hope Creek and Aggie Creek were found in creeks of
those names by prospectors dredging for gold.  Also I believe that the Cold
Bay pallasite (also Alaskan) was found on the beach.  I believe that covers
all known Alaskan meteorites!

A large piece of the Marjalahti pallasite was witnessed to fall into a 
lake.  Vladimir Stepakov, Ivan Koutyrev's partner, nearly drown while 
searching for this one.

Also, weren't several pieces of the Estherville mesosiderite seen to fall

Hello Serguei, Bernd, and list,

Here's another for the record, but I'm wondering if the correct spelling
of Lake Okeechobee can be found in the new "Catalogue", it is misspelled
as Okechobee in the fourth edition and it is not found in the Bulletin.

Fragments weighing ~1 kg were brought up in a net about three-quarters
of a mile from the shore of Lake Okeechobee, Florida.

Thank you, Craig. How could I forget such a celebrity :-(

Best regards,

Bernd

The Bjurböle L/LL4 meteorite slammed through 40 cm of solid
ice and broke into fragments, the largest of which weighed
80 kg - the total weight was about 330-400 kg. The diameter
of the hole in the ice measured 425 x 350 cm. The depth of
the water at the impact site was 90 cm and the sea-floor
consisted of  soft organic mud. There were numerous splashes
of mud around the impact hole up to a distance of 20 to 25
meters. The meteorite was finally recovered from a depth of
6 meters below the surface of the water in the clay layer
underlying the mud layer.

Would Tagish Lake qualify?  It landed on a frozen lake and most of it later

[meteorite-list] Meteorites that fell into the water

2002-05-04 Thread Bernd Pauli HD

Hello Serguei and List,

The most famous meteorite that fell into a pond or a stock tank is, of
course, Pena Blanca Spring. See detailed description in Joel Schiff's
METEORITE magazine: Meteorite! (May 2000, Vol. 6, No. 2, pp. 36-38).

Some of the Siena stones have also been reported to have fallen into
a pond: "Two astonished English ladies saw stones fall into a pond
and splash out water that appeared to boil." The government had the
pond drained and actually recovered some Siena stones [MARVIN
U.B. (1996) E.F. Chladni (1756-1827) and the origins of modern
meteorite research (Meteoritics 31-5, 1996, 558-561)].

Several Chinga specimens were found in the Chinga River basin. And
there is the Djati-Pengilon H6 chondrite which fell into the Alastoeva
river.

Another celebrity is the Grosnaja CV3 chondrite. A shower of stones
fell, after detonations, but only 1 of about 3.5 kg was recovered as
the rest fell into the river Terek.

Monte Milone, L5, brecciated: After detonations, many stones fell
(some in the river Potenza) 8 miles from Macerata, Italy.

Seymchan, a IIE iron of 272.3 kg was found in the bed of a stream
flowing into the river Hekandue, a tributary of the Jasachnaja.

Shirahagi, IVA, mass of 22.7 kg was found in the bed of the Kamiichi-
kawa river. Saotome, which is structurally similar, was found in the
same river 2 years later.


Best wishes,

Bernd
