A farmer found this in his field and brought it in today. A University of
Notre Dame geologist said it contained plagioclase, olivine and possibly
iron. He said it probably is not a meteorite and I concur with his opinion.
I told the farmer I would post the pics on the metlist for other opinions.
It weakly attracts a strong magnet. It's obviously nothing like the Blue
Chondrite, NWA 1941, and it's not Sonny's Blue Eagle, so whadizzit? I have
no idea.

Thanks for any thoughts,

Phil Whitmer
