“Several dozen people have contacted us in the museum since the fireball was seen, but none of the stones found was a meteorite,” said the scientist. In the end, eight months after the case, a person who was in contact with Ferrière during the first searches came forward with the decisive find. Immediately Ferrière and his colleague Julia Walter-Roszjár drove to Kindberg to examine the rock and continue to search. The broken rock actually shows the typical black enamel crust and a gray interior with shiny metal grains as well as some thin melt veins, according to the scientists.
