Stone Meteorites

This meteorite came from the Elbert King meteorite collection. Labeled as "UNDOCUMENTED" and side noted, "#2". The stone was first recognized as a meteorite by KSU geologist Doug Brookins at the university in Manhattan, Kansas.

The meteorite was "discovered" on the desk of a university secretary where it was being used as a paper weight. A fitting job for any meteorite. The original find date is unknown. Elbert King acquired the aerolite from Brookins in a trade. It was unclassified and part of the King collection at the time of his death. A single stone, 301 grams, is all that is known of this find.

The Kansas Meteorite Society acquired it in 2004 and sent 26 grams to UCLA were it was classified by Alan Rubin in October of that year. The meteorite is a stone chondrite H4, W3, S1. Officially named the "Kansas State University" Meteorite in February 2005.

This piece is part of Kansas history and a special specimen of great importance for the collector of interesting material. Would be a beautiful addition to any new or existing collection. Comes with a Mark Bostick Collection and a Canagem Collection specimen card.
