[meteorite-list] FW: Canadian Meteorite statistics
Dear List: It looks like Bernd got the following but no one else did, because of a missing hyphen -. Here are the statistics, showing the latest Canadian meteorite ranks as #22 in mass on the TKW scale. It is the second largest stony meteorite FIND in Canada, after Vulcan, but not the second largest meteorite found in Canada, nor the second largest stony meteorite found in Canada. RKH -Original Message- From: Herd, Richard To: 'Bernd Pauli HD' Cc: '[EMAIL PROTECTED]' Sent: 3/8/02 2:59 PM Subject: RE: Canadian Meteorite statistics Dear Bernd: Hi. The TKW of Iron Creek was less than originally reported (386 lbs). How do we know this? The meteorite was re-weighed in 1999 and presently the main mass is now 145.25 kilos. Not enough has been distributed to account for 30 kilos, nor is there enough cutting to suggest that amount was removed, in fact far less is indicated, maybe as little as a kilogram. Here's my e-mail to Monica Grady of June 1, 1999, referred to in the 5th Edition Natural History Museum Catalogue: = Dear Monica: As a result of recent discussions, the Curator at the Provincial Museum of Alberta, Ron Mussieux, has confirmed that the weight of the main mass of the Iron Creek, Alberta iron meteorite is now about 320 lbs or 145.25 kilos. The original mass is recorded everywhere as 386 lbs or over 175 kilos. As there is no evidence that 66 lbs of the meteorite has been distributed elsewhere, i.e. far less is recorded in other places and there is no evidence of where 30 kilos could have been removed, it appears that the original weight was in error. A consequence of this is that the Madoc, Ontario iron meteorite at 167.5 kilos original mass now is the heaviest/largest found in Canada. Please contact Ron at [EMAIL PROTECTED] to confirm this for revision in your catalogue. Thanks. RKH == The listing of Canadian meteorites based solely on TKWs is, for the top 25, as of today: Bruderheim - Madoc - Iron Creek - Abee - Springwater - Dresden(Ontario) - Osseo - Peace River - Manitouwabing - Hagersville - St-Robert - Vulcan - Shelburne - Edmonton (Canada) - Skookum - Millarville - Beaver Creek - Bruno - Mayerthorpe - Annaheim - Tagish Lake (?) - Elm Creek - Welland - Belly River - Hodgeville - Kyle (Last two both 7kg).

Re: [meteorite-list] Clogging up the LIST with junk !
Chuck, Great idea...go ahead and start your own list and when it is setup with all the categories go ahead and let us all know and we will be glad to look it over and join. I intially thought your post was common spam. Go back into the setup of you account and take the time to change the name of your account to better reflect who you are. Right now it says that you are "CoxSMTPwest". Then it is customary to sign your posts with your name. As for tests and hi's and other stuff...I know that something that is labelled test is not worth the look and I delete it. As for someone saying hello, well that is part of being in a community. As for the rest of the categories...I kinda like the way things are now...but that shouldn't stop you from setting up your own list...let us all know when it is ready.

Hi Chuck; As one of those who has sent about four TEST emails in the past month; sometimes it IS necessary to send a TEST due to email problems (sending and receiving). It is marked TEST in the subject area, SO YOU CAN DELETE IT. The Delete key is the one on your keyboard marked ; DELETE and is toward the right-center of the keyboard about half way down. If you need further aide in finding this DELETE key, please email me privately, or better yet...CALL ME. I would be very happy to help you find it, and to tell you EXACTLY what to do !

[meteorite-list] Willow Grove Meteorite - Farmer Buckley's Surprise Harvest
G'day List, As a member of the Melbourne Museum, I receive the Museum Victoria Magazine. In the current issue there is a great story on Willow Grove; an anomalous ungrouped nickel-rich ataxite meteorite. Here's an interesting little insert to the main story. Farmer Buckley's Surprise Harvest. In 1995 Moe dairy farmer David Buckley was clearing one of his paddocks for pasture when he struck the first piece of an unusual looking rock. Unlike the other rocks he was removing from the paddock, this one had a particularly rusty look and when he picked itup to get a closer look, the weight of it was more than twice that of similar sized rocks. It was different from all the other rocks in the paddock, but I wasn't sure what it could be. I thought it might be a clump of iron but I wanted to find out more about it, says David. David showed the 2.7kg lump of rust-covered metal to some mates, one of whom, Howard Orton, contacted Bill Birch at the museum to have it checked out. This was after the mandatory test with the oxy-acetylene torch at the local garage! A subsequent find in 1998 yielded a 9kg meteorite. With the smaller rock now in the museum's collection, the Buckley family have held on to the larger rock. A family treasure, David intends to keep the meteorite for both its story-telling value, and his own personal souvenir of the solar system. *** I spoke to Bill Birch (Senior Curator Geology - Melbourne Museum), and he mentioned that the 2 pieces did not appear to fit together and there were likely other pieces out there! If anyone is interested in a photocopy of the main story, just let me know I'll send you a copy. Thanks, Jeff K. http://movies.yahoo.com.au - Yahoo!
