Sounds like bombs going off [/quote] I'm still not %100 sure what to make of this apparent Meteorite - Somethings seem off to me,for example the punched out hole in the wall and roof of the Zinc Factory where it was claimed part of the Meteorite struck causing the damage seen,here - [youtube]http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=wZ2XXa5oFhw[/youtube] http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=wZ2XXa5oFhw Coupled with this regarding the future worth of the plant - ' [b][i]Chelyabinsk Zinc expects RAS net profit to tumble 90% in 2013 CHELYABINSK. Dec 7 (Interfax) - Chelyabinsk Zinc Plant (RTS: CHZN) is planning to post a net profit of 55 million rubles to Russian Accounting Standards next year, compared to an anticipated net profit of 594 million rubles in 2012, the plant's chief executive, Rinat Shakirzyanov told Interfax, citing the approved budget for 2013[/i][/b]'http://business.highbeam.com/407705/article-1G1-311337653/chelyabinsk-zinc-expects-ras-net-profit-tumble-90-2013 And then,whadayaknow - '[b]Zinc rose in London, narrowing this week’s drop, after an exploding meteorite caused damage at a Russian plant producing the metal. A shock wave caused by the blast destroyed a wall in a concentrate warehouse at the Chelyabinsk Zinc Plant site and smashed windows in other buildings, spokesman Evgeny Ponomarev said today. The plant is working as usual, he said. Chelyabinsk Zinc produced 160,000 metric tons of refined zinc and alloys last year, according to the company website. “Your immediate knee-jerk reaction is that this is potential supply being taken out of the market,” Nic Brown, head of commodity research at Natixis SA in London, said by phone today. “And then you spend time thinking, ‘How much impact does this have[/b]?’”'http://www.bloomberg.com/news/2013-02-15/zinc-rises-as-meteorite-explosion-causes-damage-at-russian-plant.html ! So as far as the Zinc Factory is concerned I am suspicious:wink: :sun::hf: [/quote] Something seems very off about it. The odds are 1 in 97,000,000 that we have this meteorite of such magnitude with the fly by of the asteroid. Not my math but a very smart buddy who researched it. I'm not saying its not on the up and up but I've seen enough videos to realize some have one grand explosion and others as above have many,strange is all. [/quote]
