#Meteorites from #2024BX1 - We've just heard that the meteorites reported yesterday have been confirmed as rare #Eucrite or #Aubrite type.
Further finds today by Hungarian, German and other teams. The unusual grey rocks were probably being ignored by earlier hunters. Mark says "i know Id have missed them...!"
At least 200g recovered now... (pics of two separate finds below)
