In 2007-2008 the authors found many magnetite microspheric particles in ground samples at the Trans-Carpathians mountains near the village of Tur'yi Remety. Their diameters are of 0.1 - 0.3 mm and they have Ni, Co and Cr as chemical composition. We think that these particles are part of the bright bolide of EN171101 which exploded above Trans-Carpathians mountains on Nov. 17, 2001.
