Hi List,

A new meteorite (Bouanane) was added to the Met Bulletin yesterday and
in the description it says the meteorite was used as a hammer/anvil
tool in the Neolithic period.

This meteorite came out of Morocco courtesy of Philippe Thomas. Does
anyone have a photo of this specimen? I'm very curious to see what it
looks like.
