Skiff Meteorite

Skiff farmer Bill Nemeth found a meteorite in the ground on his farm (NE1/4-31-3-4-W4) in 1966. 12 years later, he sold it to the University of Alberta Geology department. The exact date of its impact is currently unknown, but evidence suggests it was not very old, geologically speaking.
