What the heck is a "paleometeorite", how is it different from a
fossil meteorite, and why is NWA 2828 called this?

Dear List Members,
I am pleased to announce a new and very rare EL3 Paleo-Meteorite. It
is NWA 2828 and was originally thought to be an aubrite but after
additional material was cut and analyzed at the University of
Washington and NAU, a few radial pyroxene chondrules were
discovered. EL3's are even rarer than aubrites so the
re-classification turned out to a pleasant surprise. What is
interesting about NWA 2828 is the very low count of chondrules
throughout the individual stones, less than 1%! It has taken nearly
a year of hard work by myself and the scientists to get this
properly classified so if you are interested, purchase your EL3
material from the official source for NWA 2828 where you know you
will get a great deal and the right meteorite.
I have loaded 36 slices, end cuts and individuals on eBay under my
seller name, NaturesVault. Here are the direct links to these very
low introductory-priced specimens:
