摘要
Specimens from the meteorite jail at 1:05 a.m., on 8 February 1969 at Pueblito de Allende, Chihuahua, Mexico, have been recovered. The meteorite is a chondrite (C3 and C4) with both opaque and macrocrystalline matrices. Specimens were brought to a low background gamma counter less than 4 1/2 days after the fall, and gamma rays from short-lived isotopes have been observed.
