Mark's post reminded me that I never properly answered Tom's original Gold Basin question. In D. Kring et al (2001) "Gold Basin Meteorite Strewn Field..." this is the only mention of post-fall transportation in the entire paper: "The locations of the samples, particularly those on bedrock, indic

Hi List, I would like know why certain areas hold more meteorites and , could these areas be Super Accumulation Areas?  For example Gold Basin has produced 3000 + meteorites. Four different types, three ordinary chondrites and one mesosiderite. There has been other strewnfields with different type

Rob, Bob and Listers,   I embrace Bob's descriptive term for scattered, but paired, drylake finds as accumulation zones. I believe that is the term used to describe the areas on the Antarctic ice sheet where meteorites by the armloads seem to be "gathered". The fact of the matter is, the meteorites

Hi John, I think if we get back to basic definitions, a strewn field is an ellipsoid shape caused by a mid air explosion raining down material, as far as I understand.  What happens afterwards to the material is irrelevant.  And the strewn field is a geometric representation fitted to the fall in p
