Hello,

a last AD for these times, two meteorites with a rare classification.

The first have been classified as EH5 chondrite. I only know (according to
MetSoc Database) six official EH5 (four from Antarctic + two witnessed falls :
Saint Sauveur and St. Mark's) :

(The correct TKW is 25.7g, and not 98g as reported on the Bulletin because
mistake with the NWA 5921TKW)


The second is a tiny, fine-grained, and very fresh new winonaite... Look at the
full size pictures and enjoy the crystaline structure ! TKW is only 44.7g :
