DolanDave Posted March 6, 2012 Share Posted March 6, 2012 Hey Frank !!!!That is an awesome looking meteorite you found and got classified. Congradulations... I have been to that area a few times, and would never expect to find a meteorite. That is also a nice size. I think that town next to you should be KingFrank, not Kingman...Congrats...Dave Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
frank c Posted March 6, 2012 Author Share Posted March 6, 2012 Thanks Dave , considering Dolan Springs has become DolanDave !!! Maybe they'll change Kingman's name. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Johnno Posted March 6, 2012 Share Posted March 6, 2012 G'Day FrankWell done! And what an excellent specimen. I still keep looking at the pictures. Superb orientation, excellent flow lines.Do you have a picture of the back? I'd like to see some roll over lip and some bubbling. You make me proud mate. I have one sitting in the queue, not as fantastic as yours. I'm guessing an L6, but it is the main mass I possess and a very low NWA number 231 with quite a story behind it. Hope it gets published soon and we can both get together and do the Happy Dance and demo a bottle of Cabo WaboCongratulationsCheers, Johnno Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

frank c Posted March 6, 2012 Author Share Posted March 6, 2012 Steve it is comparable in size to a good sized charcoal brickette and similiar in shape. Total was approx. 93 grams before slicing. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
