Hello all!


I am glad to say that Vic?ncia is a official LL3.2 meteorite now!

http://www.lpi.usra.edu/meteor/metbull.php?sea=vic%C3%ABncia&sfor=names&ants=&falls=&valids=&stype=contains&lrec=50&map=ge&browse=&country=All&srt=name&categ=All&mblist=All&rect=&phot=&snew=0&pnt=Normal%20table&code=60304

There existed only other 3 meteorite falls in history of such rare (
<= 3.2) primitive chondrite type.

Bishunpur 1895 Uttar Pradesh, India LL3.15 1039 g
Krymka 1946 Nikolayev, Ukraine LL3.2 50 kg
Semarkona 1940 Madhya Pradesh, India LL3.00 691 g

Need now to recover some money spent on this new fall. Will have few
available, if you are interested please send PM for details. Most will
go to museum.


Best,

Andre Moutinho
