I had just over 500 kilos and I have another 70 kilos in morocco so I went 
through around 600 kilos of NWA869 myself. I have 50 or 60 kilos here now 
and so I still have well over 100 kilos from the original 600 that I 
originally had. Other dealers have more including some that are obviously 
from the same fall but sold as something different because of a belief that 
some samples are much better than the L5 classification that will appear in 
the meteoritical bulletin. The inclusion like things are fairly rare so I 
can see it being missed during classification if the sample that was used to 
make the thin section never had one of the inclusions. Look at this photo:
http://www.meteoriteshop.com/aa-nwa869b.jpg
The bottom half is typical NWA869 but the top part looks like a totally 
different meteorite. This one dont show it but many samples have what appear 
to be black or whitish inclusions.
I am going travelling next week but I can send a kilo of uncut specimens to

of specimens in two or for $300 a kilo I will cut you 40 to 60 gram (On

[meteorite-list] [OT] Greetings from New York, July 4, 2002

2002-07-05 Thread geoking

Dear Listees:

Hello from the banks of the Hudson River, on July 4, 2002!

It is 99 degrees; helicopters are patrolling over New York City; 
2,000 National Guard troops are on the streets; the summer flowers 
are blooming; and flags are flying. A poll says "9 out of 10 
Americans have not altered their plans for July 4 celebrations," 
despite terror warnings from the White House.

Sitting here, about 1 1/2 miles due west from the site of the former 
World Trade Center -- on this our 226 th Independence Day, and the 
first following the destruction of the Trade Center -- I send 
greetings to our friends and colleagues around the world who have 
shown the USA so much support and compassion since September 11.

Here's a view from the front of my house, this morning:

http://www.notkin.net/temp/july-4.htm

Also, a special hello -- and condolences -- to our friends in 
Colorado and Arizona who have suffered so much loss over the last two 
weeks.

Regards to all,

Geoff Notkin

[meteorite-list] Sikhote Newspaper Article

2002-07-05 Thread Mark Bostick



Hello,
 
I have once again found an old meteorite newspaper 
article...this one on the Sikhote-Alin meteorite.  
 
Paper is "The Mainichi" an occupied Japan newspaper 
in English. Dated Sunday, June 22 1947. (Note: Occupied by American forces). 

 
"1,000-Ton Meteorite Drops In Soviet 
Area"
 
"MOSCOW, June 20 - A huge meteorite weighing 1,000 
tons has dropped in the Far Eastern area of the Soviet Union.  Soviet 
Scientist have been dispatched to investgate."
 
 
 
Not much of an article.  Not sure why 
either.  Russia was not on "good terms" with the Americans after the war 
but the Berlin Wall was not built untill 1961.  So why take 4 months to 
tell the world in two lines that a meteorite fell?  Any 
thoughts?

Tim,

I'll guess the bottom one is a real meteorite. Maybe a 1947 SA?

The top specimen looks too "roundish". Hematite ore or something like it?

Hey...50/50 chance.

PS   The 102 F (in the shade) we had here in Eastern Pennsylvania yesterday
was "not" a dry heat. WOW! At least we finally got a break today...below 90
F.   Hope all of you out West get a break soon. And hopefully it gets above
70 F for you guys in Europe. Take care all.
