The 100 Meter Meteorite That Just Disappeared | Fer de Dieu of Chinguetti

In 1916 Captain Gaston Ripert claimed to have discovered a huge iron meteorite, 40 metres high and 100 metres long, in the desert of North Africa. He said that the iron mass was located in sand dunes about 45 km to the south-east of the town of Chinguetti in Mauritania. He collected a 4 kg fragment lying close to the giant metal mass, which a number of years later ended up in Paris, where it was identified as a relatively rare type of stony-iron meteorite, known as a mesosiderite. It was hailed as a great discovery, but a series of expeditions failed to trace the meteorite.
