Thank you for reading all ;-) Michel FRANCO IMCA 3869. - Original Message - From: David Freeman [EMAIL PROTECTED] To: [EMAIL PROTECTED] Sent: Sunday, February 29, 2004 9:43 AM Subject: Re: [meteoritecollectorsassociation] Where is the IMCA going? Dear All, Seems many list members didn't read this email the first time around so here it is again, SEE BELOW SECOND PARAGRAPH, FOURTH PARAGRAPH AND READ IT ALLI GUESS. Dave Freeman IMCA member [EMAIL PROTECTED] wrote: Hello Everybody, Thank you for all the comments, questions, suggestions and criticisms you have been sending us lately. We do read them and discuss them. So, let me try to answer as many of you as possible now. (grab a cup of coffee, this is going to be almost as long as some of Dougs emails. Just kidding, Doug.) First of all let me restate what the IMCA is all about and our goals: Authenticity is the corner stone of the International Meteorite Collectors Association and all members are asked to refrain from ever knowingly selling or promoting fake meteorites or related material (tektite, impact breccia, impact glass, etc.) as condition of membership. To promote authenticity, the IMCA and its members are available to educate the public and will assist in getting questionable material analyzed and authenticated. I hope this will settle a few arguments. Now, where is the IMCA going. The IMCA is now a bit over 2 years old, what was an experiment appears to be successful, so it is time for the IMCA to become a legal entity, with a charter, rules, dues, legal rights and legal protection. We have been discussing this for a while and have gathered information. What it really boils down to is that it requires having a lot of paperwork done by a specialized lawyer, and it will cost quite a bit of money. And that is the biggest obstacle. The only way we see to make that possible is via dues. So we are now asking all members to pay $20 for the privilege of being a member of the IMCA. A small price to secure the future of the association, and its legal protection. We expect that with these funds we will be able to tackle that work and actually become a real Association. And if there is a specialized lawyer, looking for a tax write-off among you, please do contact us. I would like to add that we do appreciate the various fundraisers, and the items donated to Michael Bloods auction in Tucson, and we really want to thank the high-bidders. But this is simply not enough if we want this association to grow and be legally protected. And we do need to be a lot more visible, so (when we have some money) what we would really like to do is this: if you do a search for meteorite on Ebay, a nice blue banner appears on top of the page, asks if you want to buy nice authentic meteorites and gives you a link to the web site of a well-known meteorite dealer (and IMCA member). Now, wouldnt it be nice if a banner showed up asking if you want to buy real meteorites or waste your money on fakes, with a link to the IMCA site? It would make Kens work a lot easier. Eventually we could have a similar banner on Google too. To answer other suggestions, yes, we are planning on an Education page on the site, and a page where Ken could post his warnings and findings is a good idea too. All these will happen as soon as Jim and Rhett are done cleaning up the mess Yahoo caused, and issuing new logos with the correct address on them. A very big job. In the mean time please keep on sending us your opinions, criticisms and praises (?). We will try to answer as quickly as possible. Thank you for your attention, and your patience. Anne M.

[meteorite-list] Kaali Crater postcards and Joe the Lamp comic
Hello list, FirstI would like to thank the different list members for their help with my Kaali Crater postcards. If I haven't answered your e-mail or request yet, I will shortly. http://www.meteoritearticles.com/postcardsestonia.html I have corrected information and added links to larger scans of the front of the each of the older postcards. If anyone can provided more dating information, that would be great. At some time I plan on having both sides of each click able, as well as most of my postcard collection. I will be giving the postcards a catalog number but at this time I will only be cataloging the cards in my collection and not all. A special thanks to Anto Raukas, who was kind enough to provided information, and didn't even mention that he co wrote an article in the November 2003 Meteorite Magazine (pg. 32-33) on the craters. This last week I had to take off and fly to the east coast and back. I don't mind flying, but with Tucson, I had read all the flying magazines I usually buy, and all the airplane advertisement magazines already, and since I needed an article for a freelance job, I thought, this would be a great time to do it. However, some female eBay buyer sent me a drawling she made of a female Joe the lamp (I mention Joe the lamp briefly on my eBay about me) And with thought in mind..I better start that freelance article because instead I came up with this. http://www.meteoritearticles.com/joethelamp00.html Mark Bostick Wichita, Kansaswhen home www.meteoritearticles.com www.kansasmeteoritesociety.com

When i left, ,ost of Spain was snowed in; there was 5 inches of snow on the roads and i had difficulty getting out of the mountains to catch my flight to Morocco. I am in Morocco now, have alot of great new meteorites. Get your pennies together; as my team has recovered a new fall, gorgeous would not be doing it justice.

[meteorite-list] Bernd / Clast vs. Inclusion
I got four private replies to this question, two that were informative and two that wanted me to forward them any info I received off list. So let me take this opportunity to relate my updated understanding of this, bcc: Bernd Pauli with a formal invitation to post his thoughts. (RSVP - Bernd, please come back. If anyone starts up with the disrespect that caused Bernd to remove himself from the list, I'll threaten them to be recipient of my well intentioned but WORDY emails. Ask Anne, she might expand on what you're in for). OK, here's the thoughts hopefully to be constructively critiqued: Inclusion is the more general term, for which a clast is a special case with arguable limits of application. An inclusion which is not called a clast is a chance introduction of material into the matrix from an external source which is generally not characteristic of a concretion type matrix. All clasts are inclusions which additionally are common in the concretion type matrix or in its case, derived from it. In practical terms, this means most reasonably sized samples from the overall matrix have a high probability or definable composition proportion of the clast material. Size doesn't matter. Composition and frequency of inclusion does. Thus, it is inconsistent to restrict or exclusively suggest the term "inclusions" for larger elements and "clasts" for smaller ones of the same type in the same type of matrix. Opinion: If something is a clast, it should be referred to as so, and not interchangably in the same writing with the more general term inclusion. If the writer doesn't wish to commit whether it is a clast of not - and this requires knowledge of the martrix being studied -, only the general word inclusion should be used throughout. It would be nice if a general agreement on the limits were had since science seems to depend somewhat on precision.. This sort of reminds me of the terminology issue in the difference between Howardites and Eucrites. The latter is based on diogenite composition and frequency as I understand. Yet for a ridiculous tweak in the composition, it appears that one can sell for triple the price of the other to a collector. Finally, special thanks to Mark Ferguson, for his helpful comments re: application in geology (Mark didn't critique this yet, though.) Saludos Doug

I have this new fall, fell October 16 2003 at 0200 in military post on Mauritania border. Is not named until nomenclature commitee gives it name. It is an H 3 or 4 breccia, and despite what Habibi says, is not at all weatered, and those of you who bought bensour from me know that when i say fresh, i mean fresh. Perhaps he saw a different stone? I will be divying it up among my partners next week, and want to tell all that there will not be that much to go around, so email me NOW with what you want to spend; i will put in order and go first come first served. Many small stones but we will be keeping a good amount for our selves; so i would say only 20 pieces totaling about 1.5 kilo will be for sale, as you can see, not much.

Re: [meteorite-list] new fall
Hi list, I wonder why in that region so many falls are observed and found. It's not directly very crowded in that aerea and something I think by myself, perhaps they saw a nice bright shooting star in the dark, dark desert nights and some weeks later the find among the normal W3-stuff a nice fresh W0, concluding that it must have been the shooting star? Something like El Hammami Or it's because most people there are meanwhile great experts in meteoritics, more sensible and pay more attention? Ech, this mail should not sound insulting, don't want to hear about isotopes, I would only feel better, if someone could give more details about the circumstances of the falls. An eyewitness report would be nice, a day-light-fireball great. Cheers!

Welcome aboard, PrintsTodd. Any ideas on some good meteorite hunting grounds here in Arizona? If your goal is to find a meteorite -- any meteorite -- your best bet is to go where they've been found before. Gold Basin or nearby Red Dry Lake would be good places to start. If your goal is to make a NEW find, then these are still good places to start. But anywhere that has limited vegetation, low annual rainfall, and an old surface will do. --Rob __ Meteorite-list mailing list [EMAIL PROTECTED] http://www.pairlist.net/mailman/listinfo/meteorite-list

Is not named until nomenclature commitee gives it name. It is an H 3 or 4 breccia, and despite what Habibi says, is not at all weatered, and those of you who bought bensour from me know that when i say fresh, i mean fresh. Perhaps he saw a different stone? I will be divying it up among my partners next week, and want to tell all that there will not be that much to go around, so email me NOW with what you want to spend; i will put in order and go first come first served. Many small stones but we will be keeping a good amount for our selves; so i would say only 20 pieces totaling about 1.5 kilo will be for sale, as you can see, not much. This one will not be like Bensour, little out there to get.

[meteorite-list] New Fall called Amgala from Western Sahara
Dear List Members, It looks like the cat is out of the bag. We have been working on this new fall for several months now and have accumulated several kilograms (largest inventory of Amgala in the World) which we plan to release later this week at excellent prices. We acquired many times more material than anybody else so we can offer the best specimens at the best prices. We will be posting several images with dozens of examples each to pick from. We normally do not release material until it is completely classified but will make an exception in this case since we should have the classification data within two weeks. We have very nice looking Amgala (Proprietary Provisional Name) inventory with completely crusted and oriented specimens so you may want to consider these before making any purchasing decisions. Here is a link to some images of a test samples: http://www.lunarrock.com/amgala/amgalagroup.jpg Here is the provisional data and coordinates: Amgala Meteorite Fall - October 16, 2003 Location: Amgala to Oum Dreyga, Western Sahara, Morocco Date: October 16, 2003 Time: 2:00 AM GMT Direction of fall: Southwesterly Coordinates of known strewn field to date: Amgala Latitude: 26 degrees 15' North Longitude: 11 degrees 12' West Oum Dreyga Latitude: 24 degrees 12' North Longitude: 13 degrees 20' West Amount recovered: Approximately 15 kilos Classification: Chondrite (pending) Witness statements from 3 soldiers in Tiyert (sp) collected by Team LunarRock 1) Youssef Oukhaye - Saw the red high and smoker and heard the sound of two bangs. 2) Hamidi Hdou - Supposed that a plane was falling. 3) Yassine M'hamed - Heard a strange sound breaking the land.

[meteorite-list] Fw: Park Forest Strewnfield report
- Original Message - From: Comcast Mail To: Meteorite list Sent: Sunday, February 29, 2004 7:14 PM Subject: Park Forest Strewnfield report I just got back from hunting Park Forest and Olympia fields. Two days of hunting mostly forested areas and no new finds. The forests are 95% covered with leaves. It is easier to work through the forests though, considering the lack of growth compared to spring and summer. I used a metal detector through most of the forests. If anyone plans on hunting the forests with a metal detector, plan on it going off every few yards as there is alot of trash buried below the soil. And alot of times when the detector detected metal I couldn't dig deep enough because alot of the ground is frozen still. Which is really pointless anyways considering the meteorites shouldnt be buried in soil. Unfortunately a metal detector is necessary , unless you plan on checking under every leaf. Its the same if you are trying to Identify impact pits. The Forest is wall to wall leaves. I visited with a couple of locals that I know who still hunt, and they havent found any new pieces since last summer. Oh well, if anyone has plans to hunt the forests, any new finds will be sheer luck. Bob Evans

[meteorite-list] Cumberland Falls
Hello list I've done some web scouring and can't seem to turn up enough good info. What I would like is the approximate co-ordinates of the Cumberland Falls fall. The main stone I have approximate co-ordinates for, but understand two other stones were found as well but only that they were a little ways away from the 1st. As I'm only about 20 miles from there, I thought I'd look this spring and summer but need to know the general direction the two other stones fell from the 1st. If anyone knows some of this info, I would be most happy. Thanks Mark

[meteorite-list] Re: Fish Tank Meteorite on ebay
Hello Bob Evans, I would have done just the opposite of the Matteo like gentleman selling the meteorite (rock!) from his fish tank. Instead of sticking the meteorite into the fish tank I would have stuck a fish in the meteorite's hole. Once you got over the smell of decaying fish, it would make a great conversation piece. Or maybe a fine work of art to be displayed in an upscale art gallery...Indeed Sir, this is the finest meteoritic flying fish art created this Century! Why, some poor sucker, uhhh, art lover could have the fantastic piece for only $60,000.00 By the way, I have a fine looking NWA 869 (Taza) with a hole near the center and I would be happy to install a minnow into the Taza ablation hole and sell it for only $19,000. Any suc, I mean fine art lovers out there? Just Fishing, Fred Hall PS: In no way has any scaly, finned creature been harmed in the making of this e-mail.
