From the Met. Bulletin:
In 1994: "a mass of 40-50 kg was reportedly found on the shore of the Vyatka river near the town Sovetsk, but the main mass was lost". Then in 1999: "A 32 kg piece of a larger stone was purchased by S. Vassiliev in Prague. The meteorite was reportedly found in the Kirov region of Russia and is undoubtedly the missing main mass of Vyatka."

Beautiful matrix and what a history.
Found on the shore it I wondered if anyone has tried to recover the main mass if it is in the lake?
Great post Anne |
