I was lucky enough to find this nice oriented carbonaceous chondrite during my last trip in Oman in 2014. Just a small part was over the ground and is unique patina left little room for doubt. A nice discovery. The temporary reference was OM14-002 as it was the second find of this 2014 expedition.

Total mass in the Meteoritical Bulletin is false (I did a mistake). Good total mass is 42.77 grams.
