Hi all, a mix up can always happen.
It can happen to everyone. As Greg said, co-operation and exchange of experience always brings good results. That's was a good example why this list exists. Thanks to Greg for clearing this subject and for his honesty. No doubt on his reliability as well on Dr. Bunch's. best regards, Christian IMCA #2673 www.austromet.com Christian Anger Korngasse 6 2405 Bad Deutsch-Altenburg AUSTRIA email: [EMAIL PROTECTED] -----Original Message----- From: [EMAIL PROTECTED] [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] On Behalf Of Greg Hupe Sent: Thursday, September 22, 2005 7:30 PM To: meteorite-list@meteoritecentral.com Cc: [EMAIL PROTECTED] Subject: [meteorite-list] NWA 2921 Classification CORRECTION Dear List Members, I just received an email from Dr. Bunch, there was an error in the lab. Here is part of his email: Dr. Bunch's reply: "Yes there is a mistake. Your section number is RHH4 and was read as PHH4, the data of which is ET's CO3.5. Yours is an R3.8. ________complied the data before I left and I did not double check it. --- R3.8 S1 W3 Fa39.3 ± 1.2; FeO/MnO = 72-76 (we started to use this constraint which is foolproof in identifying some carbonaceous chondrites, don't need O2 data anymore). We have used our hundreds of analyses to provide the following FeO/MnO ranges: R = 68-90; CK, 100 - 130; CO, 110- 150; CV> 140). Some overlap but other compositional characteristics overcome the minor overlap of CK and CO, which do not look the same anyhow. I don't know who said that it looked like (NWA)3146, many Rs do but they are not paired with (NWA)3146... Sorry about the mistake and thank you for pointing it out." Thank you Christian, Marcin and all who brought attention to this mistake. It just shows that when we work together, good things happen. I have corrected the current auctions on eBay to reflect the R3.8 classification and have notified the two members who purchased some using "Buy it Now". Now, I wonder if crow tastes good with mustard...
