On May 26, 2017, about 11:30 am local time, a stone fell in the rural area of Palmas de Monte Alto, Bahia, Brazil. It was a clear sunny day; the residents heard some loud detonations, but thought it might be from a train line construction or a quarry. Mrs. Euzani Pais also heard a whistle and the sound of something hitting the soil. She went to the door and saw a small sand swirl. Her daughter and granddaughter, Sirlene da Silva Pais and Márcia Eduarda Pais, looked around and found a pit on the farm’s sandy road, with a black stone about 6 m away. A history professor, Nilton A. Azevedo, became aware of the fact and, with a broadcaster, published a video on the Internet. Andre L. R. Moutinho, M. E. Zucolotto (MNRJ) and Wilton Carvalho (GPA/UFBA leaded by Debora Rios) went to the site, certified the authenticity of the meteorite and purchased it in a consortium with the City Mayor on June 2. Physical characteristics: Single stone with dimensions 9 × 6 × 5 cm. Nearly completely covered by fusion crust with thickeness of 0.2-1 mm. On one edge, a piece of approx. 7 × 4 cm was sawed off, exposing the light-gray interior.
