The discovery of the meteoric stone near Lake Brown, County Avon, South-West Division, Western Australia, was recorded by Dr. Edward S. Simpson in the Annual Progress Report of the Geological Survey of Western Australia for 1921 (1922, p. 53). The following details concerning the meteorite are taken from that report and from a letter of September 25, 1925, sent by Dr. Simpson with the specimen, weighing 174 grams, which was presented to the British Museum collection by Mr. A. Gibb Maitland, at that time Government Geologist of Western Australia.
