Jack writes:
The remaining main mass of Ban Cho Lae, an H5 W1 S0. Ban Cho Lae, one of only four officially recognized meteorites from Thailand and the only H5 as well, was discovered by Lahu tribesmen in February of 1975 while harvesting wild rattan near their village of Ban Cho Lae. The photo of the cut surface shows a large 6 x 6 mm nickel-iron metal bleb.
