1158 grams. Currently being characterized at UCLA.

This is a single stone, broken in half upon impact. This stone is very fresh, 3-6 years old, and a possible H-4.

I'm former Marine; grew up in Bullhead city. AZ. I have finally achieved a lifestyle that allows me to hunt 6 months a year. I work in Canada in summer and hunt all winter. This last year I located over 30 lbs of mostly seperate [meteorites]. I am an open-desert cross country researcher. I will be offering expeditions this coming year. I can also provide security for more unstable regions, such as (Indian Butte).
