A rock can also be very porous (lots of spaces in the rock) and have little permeability to fluids. There is not necessarily a direct correlation. The permeability for any given fluid (e.g. water, oil, gas) is dependent on the degree of communication between pore spaces, which is contingent on the size and amount of physical pathways between pore spaces. More connecting apertures between pore space results in greater fluid permeability, but smaller apertures and pore spaces result in poorer fluid permeability because of capillary pressure. In addition, In the case of claystones (aka mudstones), there is generally a layer of bound water sticking to the tiny clay particles that is immobile, reducing the total porosity to an 'effective porosity'. Limestones can be very porous but have poor fluid permeability due to the holes or 'vugs' in the rock being largely interconnected. I would presume extra-terrestrial lithologies can exhibit the same sorts of variety in how their porosity or lack of it is organised. Anyway, I was wondering that if magnetic permeability and fluid permeability are at all analogous, if a corollary then exists. Is there such a thing as magnetic porosity? Does the disposition and particle size of any given magnetic substance within a meteorite affect how strongly it is attracted to a magnet, as well as the overall content of such material?

Re: [meteorite-list] correction to Are Mars Meteorites Magnetic?
I have just finished reading an article about Rabies. IT was near the end when it said that the permeability of the brain-blood barrier was the key to treating rabies. Goran mentioned the incorrectness of the term "permeability". I now concur with him. I shall now endevor to use the term "magnetic permeability" as this seems to describe what we are trying to convey. See his comments below.

[meteorite-list] "The Wave, " A Sight To see While in Arizona
For meteorite collectors going to Tucson, Arizona, a very popular and beautiful rock formation to visit in northeast Arizona is the "The Wave" (rock formation). This rock formation consists of an outcrop of deeply eroded, large-scale, eolian cross-beds in the Navajo Sandstone in the Paria Canyon- Vermillion Cliffs Wilderness, in Coconino County, Arizona. It is so popular that there is a daily online and onsite lottery that held to determine, who can visit it on any specific day. A popular article about it is: Arizona's Wave rock formation a stone-cold stunner by Hugo Martín, Times, November 20, 2007, http://www.venturacountytrails.org/News/0182-TheWaveVermilionCliffs/NewsPage.htm More Photographs of "The Wave" 1. http://www.zionnational-park.com/images/album2/index59.htm 2. http://www.zionnational-park.com/images/album2/index4.htm and 3. http://www.venturacountytrails.org/News/0182-TheWaveVermilionCliffs/photos/_Page\ .html Details about it are found in: 1. http://www.zionnational-park.com/coyote-buttes-paria.htm and 2. http://www.zionnational-park.com/map-paria-canyon.htm The geology of "The Wave" is discussed in: Seiler, W. M., 2008, Jurassic Navajo sandstone of Coyote Buttes, Utah/Arizona : coloration and diagenetic history, preservation of a dinosaur trample surface, and terrestrial analogs to Mars. Unpublished M.S. thesis, Dept. of Geology and Geophysics, University of Utah, Salt Lake City, Utah. The 67 MB PDF file is available from http://content.lib.utah.edu/cgi-bin/showfile.exe?CISOROOT=/us-etd2&CISOPTR=10965\7&CISOMODE=print On pages 65 - 66, it states; "Geomorphically, the Wave marks the convergence of two wind-scoured troughs (Loope et al., 2008; Figure 2.14A). The N-S oriented feature is approximately 96 m in 66 length---the wider, U-shaped trough is 19 m wide by 36 m long. The narrower trough measures 16 m in length by ~2 m in width (Loope et al., 2008). These troughs expose large foresets of rhythmic and cyclic alternating grainflow and windripple laminae reflecting Jurassic paleoclimate conditions (Chan and Archer, 2000; Loope et al., 2001; Figure 2.14F). The troughs expose a 10.2 m thick eolian set with a mean cyclic foreset thickness of 0.78 m. Well defined, m to sub-m scale, downward plunging soft sediment deformation on the southern flanks of the Wave may represent fluid escape structures, however, the size, spacing, and presence of dinosaur footprints in the area, suggest that these soft sediment deformation features may be vertebrate in origin (Figure 2.14E). The geology of "The Wave" is also discussed by; Loope, D. B., W. M. Seiler, J. A. Mason, and M. A. Chan, 2008, Wind scour of Navajo Sandstone at the Wave (central Colorado Plateau, U.S.A.)

Re: [meteorite-list] Are Mars Meteorites Magnetic?
Hi list and everyone! Pete, I don't agree with you. permeability is not a good term. If you want to have a correct term then use ferromagnetism. Permeability by itself isn't the correct term, you need to use "magnetic permeability" to make it correct because permeability is just a general word and is used in a number of expressions. Permeability is only the term of how easily something flows through something, magnetic fields, fluids, gases, ions in cell membranes... For example an achondrite can have a very high permeability for water and a low magnetic permeability. In other words, an achondrite can be very porous and allow water to seep through it and not showing any ferromagnetism. It is like talking about density and dense. Everything has a density but iron meteorites are dense. Everything have magnetic permeability but iron meteorites have strong ferromagnetism. http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Ferromagnetism Personally I will continue to use the more relaxed term of magnetic and then explain it "Just like a piece of iron that is attracted by a magnet." if the listener doesn't understand what I mean. Disclaimer : I'm only a physicist so what do I know... ;-) /Göran pshu...@messengersfromthecosmos.com skrev 2012-01-06 02:25: Hello list, Greg, Bernd, Yes, everone uses the term magnetic but that is not the proper word for what they are trying to convey. Greg, you are correct in your definition. The correct term is Permeability. Permeability is defined as the ability to be attracted to a magnet. Everything has Permeability, but it is to such a small degree that the object will not stick to the magnet. Almost all living things contain some iron, which makes them have a slight Permeability. There are only three metals with a high enough Permeability to become a magnet. these are iron, nichol, and colbalt. Some stainless steel can have Permeability by deformation, that is, being bent out of shape. If you get bent out of shape, maybe you can be attracted to a magnet. :) A magnet attracts the iron because the iron has Permeability. Magnetic is the term meaning having the properties of a magnet. This is sorta like Meteroid, meteor, meteorite. I'm sorry that I did not get this out sooner, but life got in the way. Pete Shugar Original Message Subject: Re: [meteorite-list] Are Mars Meteorites Magnetic? From: GREG LINDH Date: Tue, January 03, 2012 5:49 pm To: Cc: meteorite-list Hi Bernd, I meant to address this email to you and not to Eric. So here it is again. I have always wondered why people here on the List, keep referring to some meteorites as being "magnetic". To me, being magnetic means having the properties of a magnet. There are no meteorites that natually attract iron, so why are they described as being "magnetic"? Am I wrong? Regards, Greg L. From: bernd.pa...@paulinet.de To: meteorite-list@meteoritecentral.com Date: Tue, 3 Jan 2012 23:36:07 + Subject: [meteorite-list] Are Mars Meteorites Magnetic? Eric inquired: "Are Mars meteorites magnetic at all?" Some of them are definitely attracted to a magnet! One of these is Bob Verish's Los Angeles and when I held a magnet to one my LAs, it readily jumped to the magnet! See, for example: COLLINSON D.W.(1997) Magnetic properties of Martian meteorites: Implications for an ancient Martian magnetic field (Meteoritics 32-6, 1997, 803).

Re: [meteorite-list] Internet Censorship
For those that are not aware, there is currently a bill being proposed In congress to censor the internet. It is not to protect exploited children, It is specifically designed to CONTROL and censor what can and cannot Be on the internet in terms of free trade, etc. Like all such conglomerate Attempts, it is couched as representing something other than it truly is. If, like I, you cherish one last bastion of freedom, protect the internet as a "hands off FREE ZONE" of information and free enterprise: Dear Friend, The U.S. Chamber of Commerce is at the forefront of efforts to pass the Internet Censorship Act, which fundamentally threatens the internet as we know it. If the bill passes, corporate copyright holders would be able to demand the government shut down a website based on nothing more than an allegation that the website contains copyrighted material. And the government could do this even without a court order. The free speech implications of this kind of extra-judicial government censorship of the internet is chilling. It's nothing short of an outright attack on our free internet. Google, which is strongly opposed to the Internet Censorship Act and has an unofficial motto of "Don't be evil," is a member of the Chamber of Commerce. But the Chamber's all-out support of this incredibly dangerous legislation has reportedly caused Google to consider quitting the rightwing organization in protest. I told Google to quit the Chamber of Commerce, and I hope you will too. You can learn more and sign the petition at the link below. http://act.credoaction.com/campaign/google_chamber/?r_by=33052-977595-ObMb3I x&rc=paste1 __ HAPPY HOLIDAYS!!
