Hello Listees,
Unfortunately there's been some trouble with uncool links on the
Meteorite Wiki.
I'd like to apologize to everyone about the "bad links" on the site.
Someone decided to be a jerk and post a bunch of not so cool links. I
thought I had removed all the bad links from the site. So
If one doesn't have the coordinates of one or more
stones of an interesting or important stone,
one doesn't know, where to look for more.
Of course. And I recognize the importance of that to meteorite collectors,
hunters, and dealers. But as a scientist, I mainly want a few grams

I would say rather the opposite - as we all know, many if not most
meteorites break up before they hit the ground.

My perspective, as someone who neither collects nor hunts meteorites, is
that it doesn't much matter. All meteorites come from the same place: space.
And where they actually land rarely matters from a scientific standpoint,
beyond perhaps the general region (which seems always present in the

For what reason? I don't understand - to keep the Japanese and Chinese polar

I can address the Meteoritical Society angle on this...
It mainly began with the Labenne meteorites, Sahara x. There were
hundreds of these things appearing around 1997, and scientists were
already working on them. We had no prospect of getting the coordinates
and faced a tough decision:

Hi List,
Recently I was doing some research on various meteorites for an
article I am writing, and I noticed a few entries in the Met Bulletin
database that give all of the details about a meteorite, but then says
that the actual find coordinates are secret or being withheld.
Ok, I understand the

Hi Listees, Meteorite Collectors, Scientists, Meteorite Junkies, Addicts &
All Meteorite Enthusiasts,
Adam, Bernd, Greg, and List members,

finds. You say you are no expert (with thin sections) but I know that
you have seen more than a few rare meteorites – your opinion is

Just like Adam, I've been desperately looking for triple junctions, ... none :-(
Unless it is something "anomalous" my recent guess (olivine diogenite) is
wrong because diogenites do have triple junctions!

Hi, Greg, List,
IF a meteorite were to fall near McPherson, Kansas or
in McPherson County, it would be a marvelous kind of
coincidence. It was while teaching at McPherson College
(in McPherson, of course), that H. H. Nininger first

Hi all -
When I visited Odessa I was told that it was suspected to be the impact of a
fragment related to the Barringer impactor. My suspicion is that the Barringer
impact is seen in the spike of C14 in the INTCAL98 chart around 45,000 BCE. So
what is OSL dating anyway, and how accurate is it?
