I wouldn't count this as a witnessed fall since there are no reliable records.
Sikhote is still the winner.

Am wondering what is the largest fall, in terms of kg, ever witnessed? Was it
Sikhote-Alin at 28 tons??

Some of you may be interested in a really good meteorite book called the
History of Meteoritics and Key Collections. I did a review of the book for
the Society for Sedimentary Geology. The review can be found here:

They gave me a copy for doing the review. Last time I checked it was 190 usd.

Why not just ask the dealer where the material came from? This has worked for
over a decade for my business. Personally, I always will tell a customer if
the ask, but only if that source wants the information given. Posting the info
for all to see, poses a problem for the privacy of that
I don't think sales are slow at all.
Especially material that sells for over 5,000 usd.

I have over a dozen very nice unclassified NWA stones on my site.

Be careful what you believe. They give NO concentrations, but just use the word
anomalous. Which means about nothing.

I found these blades to be real junk and found absolutely no advantage to using
them especially for the higher price. Irons always seem to be best cut with a
band saw by an experienced technician.
Why cut a Nantan? You are asking for troublethat sucker will likely rust in

Also of note, after the big stink that was made at the last Macovich auction
where Willamette was offered, I wanted to donate a nice piece to the tribe.
They refused the offer and never returned any future calls. Seems like the

I have added my small, but very nice, stash of Bassikounou meteorites

the market today and my price is extremely competeive @ 3.50/g..
