Greetings,

When Nininger went down to Mexico to buy Toluca Meteorites and make
exchanges at the museum to start his program, he ran into Toluca Meteorites
that were fabricated into tools by the locals. He purchased some of these
and these are held by the ASU Collection. I took some photos of them while
visiting. See article in current issue of Meteorite Magazine.

A detailed account can be read here about his trip. Best!

List:

I was wondering if a meteorite would be more desirable if it was used as a
tool; or if this has even been documented? I know there has knives made from
irons, but I'm talking more like an irons being used for some purpose:
perhaps a hammer for pounding. I cannot think of any other examples, but
there may be more.

Thanks,

Greg S.
