KILABO

Specimen weight: 1,200 grams

Broken stone

This LL6 brecciated meteorite fell on July 21, 2002 at 7:30 pm in Hadejia, Nigeria. A shower of stones fell, with a total weight of around ~15 kilos.  This meteorite fell only hours after the Thuathe meteorite (An H4) fell in Lesotho, also in Africa. Kilabo is a beautiful breccia, highly shocked.
