The status on 3/7/13 was 'provisional'. It is now L3 and the MPOD has been smartened up :)

After a problem with the database, all photos of this meteorite (and many more meteorites!) were deleted in the IMCA Encyclopedia of Meteorites (and therefore no longer available in the Meteorite Bulletin Database). Too bad.

Status NWA 5701 is not provisional; it is a confirmed meteorite.
