More like L5-6 imho... seems an awful lot of metal in some pics I've seen.. I reckon this one will be like NWA869 (L3.8-L9!) i.e. it will vary between finds, it's a big fall after all, which means it might be a little more varied than usual.

I'm disappointed but the lack of 'pointless speculation' on a classification on this list! - normally this list has it classified, weighed and half sold off before it's even recovered! :)

Hello Listers

I have heard that the Chelyabinsk Meteorite fall?could be a LL5?????? Any thoughts on that. I for one do not have the eye for that, but I have been told that who did some slicing of this meteorite said from what they could tell that it could be an LL5 from looking at it in person.

Here are some images someone sent me of the Chelyabinsk Meteorite fragments
