[1][2] It was observed to fall on 27 November 2015 at 9:15pm local time[1] (10:43:44.50 UTC[3]) in South Australia, and recovered by the DFN team on 31 December 2015 from Lake Eyre.
After an aerial search two weeks after the recorded fall, ground-based teams, assisted by the two Arabana people, pinpointed the location and subsequently recovered the rock from the salt lake, prior to rain washing away the impact hole.
[1] It contains a high siderophile element component, some well-defined Chondrules, some of which contain barred olivine, and large, single-mineral crystal clasts.
[1][2] It is also classed as a type 5, as it shows moderate amounts of thermal metamorphism which has caused secondary mineral growth and chemical homogenization.
[1][3] The fall in dark flight was modeled using the WRF climate model to determine the final fall location[3] The meteorite fell on Kati Thanda–Lake Eyre in the Far North region of South Australia, leaving a visible impact structure, that was observed by DFN searchers from a light aircraft, prior to a ground expedition to recover the meteorite.
