Dear list members,
 
according to ITAR-TASS the cosmic-ray exposure or ejection age of Chelyabinsk is reported to be
289 million years, which seems very, very high for a chondrite. Can this be?
 
Are there other chondrites with such a high exposure age or is this a typo and it is rather 28.9 million years?

What do you think?

Martin
