Hi Bill and List,

Some confusion here about Oroville. According to Vagn Buchwald,
a mass of 54 pounds (24.5 kg) was ploughed up in 1893 by C.E.
Bloomfield 10 miles north of Oroville and the first brief and incomplete
notes on this IIIAB iron were published by Bement in 1894 and Brezina
in 1896!

Regards,

Bernd
