Abstract/NotesDr. Herbert Basedow of Adelaide generously presented in November 1931 for the British Museum collection of meteorites a pallasite which he had collected in Central Australia in 1924 while leading the Vice-Regal Expedition. During his extensive explorations in Central and Northern Australia it had remained unpacked for some years. He gives the locality as on the Burr Plains, NNE. of Bond Springs in the Alice Springs district ; lat. 23° 33′ S., long. 133° 52′ E. This is immediately north of the MacDonnell Ranges and about ten miles north of Alice Springs. The fragment was found lying on the surface and only partly buried in loose ferruginous sand. No doubt other pieces of this material remain to be found in the district.
