[meteorite-list] Ad - For Sale or Trade - The Worlds First Approved CV7 - Only Two Pieces Available
Hello All A couple days ago I awoke to several congratulatory emails on being the owner of the only approved CV7 on the planet. I submitted this stone some 15 years ago. It was classified and given the name NWA 2653. Over the years this material has been swimming around as a primitive achondrite. Papers suggested L7, Metachondrite, CR, CV3, etc. As of Met Bulletin 108 it has been finally established as the worlds first CV7. Most of this material went to science (NAU, PSF, UW, UWO, UWS, CIW) to help figure it out. The photography is difficult as I had this polished out to 4 microns, only scientists wanted it so I just had it prepped for the microprobe to make life easier. PM and I can take more photos via text. It's not pretty. They skipped CV4, CV5, and CV6 altogether and came to the consensus that if you had to imagine the most baked out burnt biscuit of a CV there is no room left argue, just make this a 7, nothing can be more toasted. This is the shriveled up chain-smoking grandma to the young'uns like Axtell, Vigarano, Allende... Very little of this 50 gram stone is available to collectors. This is all that remains and I'm keeping one of them. http://www.nakhladogmeteorites.com/catalog/nwa2653.htm Rob Wesel Nakhla Dog Meteorites www.nakhladogmeteorites.com www.facebook.com/Nakhla.Dog.Meteorites www.facebook.com/Rob.Wesel __ Visit our Facebook page https://www.facebook.com/meteoritecentral and the Archives at http://www.meteorite-list-archives.com Meteorite-list mailing list Meteorite-list@meteoritecentral.com https://pairlist3.pair.net/mailman/listinfo/meteorite-list
