Peņa Blanca Spring, Marathon, Brewster County, Texas
Observed fall August 2, 1946
Aubrite, 138g
This stone meteorite fell directly into a spring, breaking into two pieces upon contact with the bottom of the pond. More than a dozen people witnessed the fall. This Aubrite is almost white, and very little metal is visible. The fusion crust is thin and cream-colored.
Discolored area lower left is from an old label.
