A meteorite fall occurred in the Katol area on afternoon of 22.05.2012
with a loud noise heard between 2.0 to 2.30 pm. Samples were collected from four localities in and
around the Katol city. Samples collected are of stony meteorites with varying size, shape and
dimensions with typical dark brown burnt surface. Compositionally these meteorites are dominated
by silicates with little iron. There is very good chance of getting meteorite samples from other part
of the Vidarbha area between Akola and Nagpur as huge sound with very bright and dazzling light
has been noticed between Akola and Nagpur by many peoples in a stretch of around 150 km in ENEWSW direction.
