Steve, Steve, Steve, if you never *HEARD* of this, why don?t you spend some
time *READING* about this. Being a big dog and high roller in the business
as you most likely consider yourself, you surely have invested in a few
books or databases about meteorites as time went by, right?

If not, so here we go:

Aldama (b), Chihuahua Mexico, (H5, S2, W3), found in summer 1996
A 66.5 g stone was found by a rockhound while searching for minerals;
classification and mineral analysis (J.Otto, University of Freiburg,
Germany), J.N.Grossman, Met. Bull. 82, MAPS, 1998, 33, p.A221.

SCNR,
Alex
