Haha, now that's just great - even if the politics were to blame initially, it wouldn't matter anyways - it's another mass of Richland. In any case, Mike Farmer and I (I'm pretty sure) resolved our bit off-list. Jason

Hi Michael According to this article; Formation of IIAB Irons By Wasson, J. T., Huber, Heinz & Malvin, Daniel J. from GCA 71 (2007) 760-781 They state in appendix B that : "The 47-kg Fredericksburg (Texas) iron was first reported to us by a person living in Alaska, who stated that it had been inherited from a deceased relative who lived near Fredericksburg. Our analysis of the sample shows that, within error, its composition is the same as that of Richland (Texas) iron. Both irons appear to be strongly weathered. However, these two Texas locations are 297 km apart, farther apart than plausible for a strewn field. Our best guess is that human transport has been involved, and that they are fragments from the same fall. Fredericksburg is not an approved name; we suggest that this mass be referred to as Richland (Fredericksburg) unless future studies imply that it resulted from a distinct fall." They also have paired up several other irons but most well know is Dutch Flat. They recommend treating it as paired with Sikhote-Alin. -- Mike -- Mike Jensen Jensen Meteorites 16730 E Ada PL Aurora, CO 80017-3137 303-337-4361 IMCA 4264 website: www.jensenmeteorites.com On 3/19/07, Michael Farmer <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> wrote: > Jason, > I have asked, many times.
