Boy, for heaven's sake, what a harvest! Sincere congrats! I am the proud owner of a particularly fresh B.C. specimen (21.75 gr) from Roman that came with the *official export permit* paper and that, of course, makes it a very special witnessed and documented fall. It has about 85% fusion crust, a light gray matrix. Its fresh, black fusion crust has a metallic luster and is covered with shallow thumbprints on one side and one surface has numerous small piezoglypts. The matrix shows abundant FeS (troilite) and I can locate numerous small, whitish, crystalline chondrules but also some relatively large ones. "Buzzard Coulee" may have been a "Lone Rock" but it's no longer a "lonely" one with all its H4 brethren (27) in my collection ;-) Best from late spring Southern Germany, Bernd ______________________________________________ http://www.meteoritecentral.com Meteorite-list mailing list Meteorite-list@meteoritecentral.com http://six.pairlist.net/mailman/listinfo/meteorite-list
