Re: [meteorite-list] Meteorite Men
According to Wikipedia, third season ran between 28 November 2011 and 9 January 2012. As I said, I haven't got the chance to see any of the episodes yet, but I plan to fix this soon.

Re: [meteorite-list] Novato (N1) found -- why the Orioniddescription?
Hello, That was not a statement from Jenniskens. That was already in the press stories, days earlier that this fall was from the shower. They are wrong, but it is now part of the legend. The stories say scientist said this, but I doubt any real scientist in the know would say this. Some writer got it wrong again.

Re: [meteorite-list] Novato (N1) found -- why the Orioniddescription?
Hi Bob. It could very well be, but then the meteorite... it should seem, would have to be a carbonaceous chondrite, since the Orionids are remnants of Halley's Comet! Last I knew all comets are usually composed of carbonaceous chondrite material. As far as the date being the 17th, the Orionids have a longer period of meteor shower then most other meteor showers. That means the Orionids can last several weeks BUT the peak of the Orionid shower falls around Oct. 20-21. This peak is where scientists/astronomers have calculated where the Earth's orbit comes into the path of the most debris left by Halley's comet. Also remember that the debris path with Halley's comet covers a long wide swath in the solar system, thus the longer length in time of meteor shower. Hope this helps or clears it up some.

I found a total of 4 meteorites in 20 days of hunting, a 29g, 32g, 33.g, and a 236g, respectively. Interesting how it works out. I found my first one on my first day, my second one on my third day, then went 7 days straight without a find. I went home for a while caught up on things, and returned to hunt for another 8 days without a find. Finally, on my sixteenth day (combined days) without a find, with only 2 days left before I have to return home I find BaM 026, a 33.2g oriented stone with a thumb size regmaglypt of primary fusion crust. There is a tiny speck of white that I thought was a chip but upon closer ispection I believe it's where the crust didn't finish forming, through the glass you can see it lapping over. (This meteorite is for sale, contact off list.) The next day, the last day, I found BaM 027 in the first 5 minutes of hunting. It weighs ~234g with out the 1.8g chip, 236g with it stuck on. Keith found the chip for me with a metal detector, it was 18 feet from the stone! We couldn't find the other small peces. Most agree, this is perhaps the most beautiful stone to come from this fall so far. It's highly oriented with 4 different phases of crust. A perfectly level primary crust makes one wonder how large the original body might have been. Once it bolided this fragment immediately oriented itself, producing some nice flow lines and a rollover all the way around. There is a 'drip' of crust that came off and stuck to the side leaving a small cave over un-burnt, white material that can be seen when you tilt the stone and look under the drip, I've never seen anything like it. This rock is for sale. Email me off list with serious inquiries. This is a world class meteorite worthy of the finest collection or institute. I'm interested in selling BaM 026 a 33.2g fully crusted and lightly oriented individual.Taking offers. I'm interested in selling BaM 027 a 236g oriented specimen, as well. Taking offers. The images aren't in any order, just a hodge podge. http://s934.photobucket.com/albums/ad190/alienrockfarm/Battle%20Mountain%20Meteorite%20Hunts%202012/ I want to thank all that made this event a memorable experience.

I have noted recent attempted sales of West Texas type meteorites by rishapatricia which were supposed to be found in 1972. There are several with asking prices between about $1000 and $6000. I'm not convinced. What do you all think?
