Wow! If I found those in a parking lot, I'd probably think they were part of the lot's paving. But how could they be part of a crushed 4 gram fragment? That's more likely to be 4 kg. -- Joe ------------------------------ On Sat, Apr 28, 2012 7:38 AM MDT Chrismo wrote:

Here's a bit more information on the meteorite. SUTTERS MILL seems to be the going name for it now, but not officially- yet. -Barrett (Yeah, I keep wanting to climb in the truck and go look for it!) http://astrobob.areavoices.com/2012/04/26/meteorite-hunters-scour-hills-near -sutters-mill-site-of-the-california-gold-rush/
They probably should have put something in the photo to give an idea of scale. I think you're right, they must be very small fragments if they are only 4 grams.
