The discovery and classification of 30 new meteorites found in or close to Roosevelt County, NM, are reported, including two H3 chondrites and a ureilite; the others are equilibrated ordinary chondrites. Over 160 meteorites representing at least 100 different falls have been recovered from this region, mostly from wind blowout areas. As in Antarctica, small specimens predominate and irons, achondrites, and C and E chondrites are rare. Paired specimens are also very difficult to identify.
