If you have something official please present it for consideration.
I dont need to wait till the reclassifcation is published to consider it. NAU is now saying publically that nwa 3133 and 1389 are the same meteorite - that is good enough for me. if you rather wait till after something is published, thats your perogative.
The
official weight of NWA 1839 is 122 grams. Regardless of what a Moroccan may
tell you about additional stones, something of this magnitude has to be
tested.
ONE MORE TIME FOR THE CHEAP SEATS. the material I am offering at 100$ a gram was cut off of the aproximatly 122g main mass of nwa 1839 by the owner of said stone. it IS nwa 1839. The additional stone i own is in my collection and not a part of this discussion. The only reason why I had mentioend it is because I belive it WILL be classified as the same stuff and I want to provide any potential customers with as much good faith information about TKW as i can. I'm sure no customer out there would comaplin that the TKW for the material was estimated on the high side instead of low when all is said and done.
Do not forget that there are other laboratories working on this besides NAU that have not weighed in the issue yet.
thats fine, but NAU's deterimination is good enough for me.
I have seen nothing official in regards to a NWA 1839/3133 pairing.
just because you ahvent seen something doesnt mean it exists (official or otherwise). i have never seen the beetles play a live concert - does that mean that 'yesterday' is a frabrication and not a real hit song?
I have also never seen an updated classification submission. As a matter of
fact, I have never seen a NWA 1839 specimen. With out the facts I make no
assumptions regarding pairings. If in doubt, have it checked out.
adam, if you ahvent seen any of these things, i'd say that the ONLY thing that means is that you are NOT qualified to make any statements about any possible pairing between these two numbers. The fine people at NAU HAVE seen the meteorites, I'll take their word for any possible pairing.
