[meteorite-list] identification if poss!
Hi, I have been sent some material which was in an old box marked 'meteorites'. It was sent to me as a gift and also to attempt some sort of visual id as to see if this is meteoritic in origin. I have taken some pics. Notice that one of the pieces seems to have both caliche and also what looks to me like morenosite and is quite shale-like (ie very weathered) but slightly magnetic -the other kinda looks familiar, is more strongly magnetic and seems to remind me of some irons I have seen but cannot recall! Please peruse and reply (offlist is fine, of course!) http://homepage.ntlworld.com/entropydave/rocke1.jpg http://homepage.ntlworld.com/entropydave/rocke2.jpg http://homepage.ntlworld.com/entropydave/rocke3.jpg http://homepage.ntlworld.com/entropydave/rocke4.jpg http://homepage.ntlworld.com/entropydave/rocke5.jpg http://homepage.ntlworld.com/entropydave/rocke6.jpg I appreciate your input, of course! dave IMCA #0092 http://homepage.ntlworld.com/entropydave/Keeper2/images/ __ Meteorite-list mailing list [EMAIL PROTECTED] http://www.pairlist.net/mailman/listinfo/meteorite-list

[meteorite-list] removing oil from a slab?

Usually acetone will do the job. > Steve Schoner/ams --- I have heard the best method is to bury it in diatomaceous earth or kitty litter WITH NO CHEMICALS for several months. When the material no longer sticks to it, it will have had all the oil sucked out of it.

[meteorite-list] Meteorites and fish tanks Off Topic delete if not interested
Dear List; Pardon my off topic, well, sort of off topic question. I had a person come to me and ask about putting a common no-name NWA orphan step child meteoritein their fish bowl with a gold fish. I know that gold fish are pretty hardy sort of miniature scavengers... Any chromosome morphology to be expectedis not my question. But to go further, the sensitivity of swimming scaly things to mineral, and other stuff. Do we have any expert fish tankers out there in the meteorite world that could offer an opinion? Please email me off list. Thank you in advance, Dave Freeman __ Meteorite-list mailing list [EMAIL PROTECTED] http://www.pairlist.net/mailman/listinfo/meteorite-list
