Minas Girais, Brazil
Fell June 30, 1957 - Anomalous Basaltic Eucrite
No. B37.1 - a 3.627 gram part-slice of, perhaps, one of the most interesting and exotic meteorites ever recovered. Note the 'holes' or vesicles, which are thought to have formed during rapid lava cooling on a differentiated parent body. A single 2500 gram stone is all that was recovered from this fall.
