The Tolar meteorite was originally found by a cattle rancher on a farm in De Baca county New Mexico in 1972. The rancher thought it was unusual and kept it. It was not until decades later that he saw a poster about meteorites and it was recognized as a meteorite.
Oddly, although this meteorite was analyzed, it was never officially published in the Meteoritical Bulletin. The reasons for this are unknown. Analysis showed that the stone was a H4 chondrite. I tried researching this meteorite further, but could not find out much about it.
Refer to the photo. The black centimeter cube is shown for scale and is not included. You are purchasing a small fragment like the one shown. Your purchase will include a labeled gemjar.
