And another 12.2-gram conical, fingertip-shaped piece (just like Mike Bandli's) did not
land in a fisherman's boat either but in my meteorite collection ;-) Proper lighting reveals
subtle flow line features and incipient lipping.

Chiang Khan was originally classified as an H5 but the Met.Bull. recommends an H6
classification instead!

Rare, beautiful ... and not quite cheap but who cares :-)


Have a Safe and Happy Easter!
