What the heck is a "paleometeorite", how is it different from a
fossil meteorite, and why is NWA 2828 called this?

I recently reduced the price of my 145g Villalbeto from 5000 to 3900 euros.
As I need cash quickly, I decided to sell it on ebay for 10 days at the

fantastic price for a witnessed and filmed, recent fall.

Greg,
I'd like to hear more about this find. The MetBull entry says that
36 stones were found. Was there a meteorite-rich layer found in a
rock outcrop? Why didn't this get reported? If it ever got
transported in a stream, I'm surprised 36 stones were found in one
place. Can you tell us
By the way - here are some famous words originating
from quite a distant past, the Ninetees or so:

Hi Doug and all,

are particularly fond of Greek and Latin) While all meteorites are
ancient, Paleo meteorite, meaning one that has been subjected to the
