Hello all, one week after getting stones in Kenya last sunday I bought pieces of my househitter from Muguga which had been sent all night by bus from Mombassa, I flew to Mexico and this sunday bought another stone, a househitter from San Juan Ocotan, Zapopan, Guadalajara.

This meteorite 1,369 grams. This location is on the edge of the city, next to a massive air force base.

It fell in September 2007, exact date unknown. It fell at ~3:00 am and smashed through a very poor house which had a tile roof covered with a tarp and smashed into mud bricks. The stone still has marks of the blue tarp, and the tile and mud bricks embedded in the stone. It was used for two years to hold open a shop door by the homeowner and seen by another man who recognized it as something special and acquired it. He finally emailed me asking if it was a meteorite.

I flew to Guadalajara and bought it this weekend. It is in perfect condition, never damaged or cleaned thankfully, and while the owners family wanted to smash it to see inside, he never did!

Quite a score, a Mexican hammerstone that appears to be a L or LL3!

Not for sale

Dem Mann gelingt tatsächlich ein Coup nach dem anderen.
