[meteorite-list] AD - New NWA 4679, Carbonaceous CK4, Special Sale
Hello List, we would like to introduce our new Meteorite NWA 4679. It's an rare CK4, very interesting and beautiful material. The classification of it is in progress, but it's for sure that it's an CK4. Here are the data we have: Name: NWA 4679 (provisional) Class CK4 Shockgrade: S2 Weathering: W3 TKW: 735g. More data will follow, we will publish them later at our website. The meteorite shows nice big clasts, probably of a higher petrological type, CK5. Some slices we offer show big barred chondrules, not often seen in carbonaceous chondrites! Today we start a special sale of this rare material, the price is between $15-$18/g. This is only for this special sale. All slices are cut very thin, big surface in relation to the weight! Take a look here: http://www.gi-po.de/ebayfolder/shop/carbopre/carbo.htm Don't miss this one! Thanks for looking.

Re: [meteorite-list] Mesosiderite?
It could be the mesosiderite that is floating around morocco and sold under lots of different NWA names but its hard to tell from your photo which is a bit blurry. See my ebay auction #190083328614 and 190083293199 which has better photos that you can compare yours to. The second one of my auctions is an unusually nice specimen of this mesosiderite and most are like the first photo. You occasionally find big chunks of metal also. If you have a strong rare earth magnet you will notice that the mesosiderite is much more strongly magnetic than an H chondrite also. So much more strongly magnetic that you wouldent really mistake one for the other. Hope this helps Cheers DEAN www.meteoriteshop.com --- Gary K. Foote [EMAIL PROTECTED] wrote: Anyone have an opinion?

[meteorite-list] Just a thought about NWA classification numbers
Hi list, Naming meteorites after their fall/find location seems to be working well. If a new find is made in the location under most circumstances, it is accepted as being paired to the previously found material. It is quite different with the numbers assigned to NWA finds. The total NWA numbers have come to represent not the separate find locations and thus the different material types but rather, some where between the total finds and the number of stones collected. NWA 2965/2828/4295 and at least ten more numbers is a good example. No one knows what is paired with what any more and to make maters worse, some dealers look at the assigned NWA number as their private property. If they get let's say 25 kilo out of a 250 kilo find and have their pile classified, there is resistance to accepting the other material of the find is even the same. You go get your own number and promote it your self is the line all secondary persons are meet with. It is my understanding that the assignment of NWA numbers was not developed to protect individual dealers exclusionary ownership rights. There is not an adequate system for correction of information on NWA finds. If I were to have material, seemingly paired to an existing NWA number, let's say it's distinctive in some way and wanted the weight included under the already existing number. Labs refuse to retest what is likely just a pairing. To pair a meteorite by the original classification lab is not as involved as a new classification. If a lab performed the initial classification, it should come with an obligation to acknowledge or discount pairing questions. This would go a long way to help clean up the great NWA stone count.

[meteorite-list] To all my past Mesosiderite purchasers: NWA4576
Since gary had a mesosiderite question I thought that it would be an opportune time to inform everybody who bought my mesosiderite that I now have a name. My apologies for this posting to those who never but there must be at least 3 or 4 dozen or more list members who have bought the un-named mesosiderite from me over the past several years. Like pretty much all dealers I have been selling the mesosiderite for several years and I have been promising everybody that I would get them a name although never got around to doing it. Most people I assume either got their own NWA name, used another or just plain dont care as everybody knows that all the NWA mesosiderites are all paired. Anyway, as promised if you bought a mesosiderite from me you now have an official name to call it by. It will appear in the next met bulletin as NWA4576 and you can use that name. TKW will be listed as around 30 kilos but of course everybody who is not trying to lie about the TKW knows that what they are selling is part of around 200 kilos in total TKW and in reality the entire fall should be known by one NWA number anyway.

[meteorite-list] Steve Schoner's Potter TS + 1.2 gr slice
Hello List, I'm glad that Steve's Potter, Nebraska (L6 with L5 components) thin section has finally made it across the Big Pond and through the German Customs net. It took only three weeks ... oh well, sigh! I can highly recommend Steve's thin sections. My Potter TS is accurately ground to 30 microns so that the olivines and pyroxenes display the proper interference colors. The quality of the glass Steve uses for his thin sections is better than what we sometimes get from professional labs and I mean professional! I love such combos: meteorite + meteorite TS. The 1.2-gram slice is of exactly the same shape as the TS itself making for interesting comparisons. Looks like an H chondrite. Maybe an H-5 or 6. Could do a thin section of it to tell which type. Hey Gary, with regard to your meso-question that is really a good idea. Why not send specimen material to Steve and have a thin section made. This would surely clear things up and shed light on your high-metal meteorite! Thank you, Steve, for this TS and keep up the good work!

[meteorite-list] Carsten's amazing new CK4 NWA 4679
Whenever I tell myself or promise my wife no further meteorite purchases in the near future, another exotic, unique, must have critter from space descends on me and shatters such solemn promises. This CK4 is unique in at least two respects: - it features dark subrounded clasts virtually devoid of chondrules - some slices show what seems to be a conspicuous BO chondrule. So far, so good, NWA 1560 and NWA 1563 have well developed BO chondrules, too, ... but: their diameters range from 0.5 to 2 mm, whereas this BO chondrule in NWA 4679 has a whopping diameter in excess of 10 mm! This is what J.C. Bridges calls a macrochondrule ( 5 mm in diameter) Whadda a meteorite! The 8.0 gram slice is mine :-) Cheers, Bernd __ Meteorite-list mailing list Meteorite-list@meteoritecentral.com http://six.pairlist.net/mailman/listinfo/meteorite-list
Re: [meteorite-list] Just a thought about NWA classification numbers
Hi Tom, I think this is a great idea, but it would involve visual pairing via photography if I'm not mistaken. How does this fare with everyone's views on pairing? I ask because I'm getting ready to send some NWA endcuts off for classification and if I could visually compare/identify I would be most happy.

Hi Gary, No, I am suggesting that a sample be sent to the lab that did the initial classification and it be welcomed and not turned away as is the usual case. An effort should be made to combine as many numbers as possible and not create situations where one find has 12 numbers. I am certainly not suggesting pairing be done on a photo.

[meteorite-list] EL3 Fossil Image
Dear List, Here is a link to an awesome image provided by the scientists responsible for classifying the fossil EL3 meteorite. They encouraged me to post this to the List so that all good see how heterogeneous this meteorite really is. This meteorite is so variable that every piece is appreciated and helped to tell the complete story. Without dealers sending in so many pieces for pairing purposes, the true importance of this meteorite may not have been realized. I was also told that no pieces were ever turned away by either the University of Washington or NAU for classification or pairing purposes. http://themeteoritesite.com/fossilEL3.jpg Best Regards, Adam __ Meteorite-list mailing list Meteorite-list@meteoritecentral.com http://six.pairlist.net/mailman/listinfo/meteorite-list

[meteorite-list] Ad Illinois Meteorites
Hi all, Interesting for those of us that care about Illinois meteorites. Joe certainly works hard. I never really thought about how difficult it is to buy a specimen from Illinois until I tried. I can't find any offerings for anything other than PF. The latest fireworks in SW Central got me all worked up. Anybody got a piece? Offline of course ;) Bill __ Meteorite-list mailing list Meteorite-list@meteoritecentral.com http://six.pairlist.net/mailman/listinfo/meteorite-list
