13.05g Punggur Meteorite w/ Fragment of Roof Tile! January 2021 Indonesian Fall

You are viewing a very exciting witnesses fall from 2021 that occurred in Indonesia: Punggur Meteorite. This slice weighs 13.05g and is a perfect representation of this stone. This is the first recognized H7 melt breccia!  It will come with an actual chunk from the roof where it struck through!

This fall had a total of 5 stones recovered, one of which slammed through a house. That particular stone generated a very unusual story: the villagers took the hammerstone and put it in water, followed by drinking it, believing it held healing properties for things such our current pandemic. They created an elixir tea with it. Needless to say, that stone is now destroyed. But not this one!
