The Revelstoke meteorite fell on March 31, 1965 in a desolate glaciated mountain-area in southeast British Columbia. Visual observations indicate that the bolide travelled along an azimuth of 093 at an inclination to the horizontal of 15°. About l g of disaggregated material was recovered from the snow on a small frozen lake lying along the trace of the trajectory. This material was initially identified as a Type I carbonaceous chondrite by direct comparison by X-ray fluorescence spectroscopy with the Orgueil meteorite. Textural and mineralogical relationships in Revelstoke closely resemble those of Alais and Orgueil. The chemical composition of Revelstoke is similar to that of Orgueil.
