E.P. Grondine inquired: "Or was Camp Verde a separate fall?"


According to Buchwald* it is "probably safe to conclude that Camp Verde is a
man-transported Canyon Diablo fragment" because "Wasson (1968) and Moore et
al. (1969) have found chemical identity to Canyon Diablo."


E.P. Grondine also inquired: "Where is the Camp Verde meteorite today?"


If it still is where it was when Buchwald* wrote his comments, the main mass
of 58.3 kg should be in Tempe
