Re: [meteorite-list] Question about meteorite rings

[Walter Paleski via Meteorite-list]

The Gibeon and Seymchan meteorites tend to be naturally rust-resistant, so 
while hand washing and showering with Gibeon jewelry is, in our experience, not 
a problem.

Re: [meteorite-list] Possible meteorite trades

[Walter Paleski via Meteorite-list]

I collect ancient crustal skulls and other ancient skulls that are magnetic and 
were carved from enterprise material. 
As well as ancient Native American artifacts. 
Aztec Mayan and Egyptian artifacts. 
I'm also a large collector and dealer of many  minerals, crystals and semi 
precious stones. 
I have a huge collection of lemrian crystals and herkimer diamonds that were 
recently on display at the museum of natural history in NYC. 
I loaned my specimens to the museum for three months for a limited display. 
I love to go mining 
Anyone going to the ancient aliens con in California in October ?

 It is just a very strange post. I'm not questioning the validity or facts,

 So we are awaiting a mystery curator to show up and offer some pieces.

 Yes, it is common knowledge that Ron's son, Jim, sold many of the meteorites 
 from his father's collection. 
 So, it MAY be that Jim was the executor of the estate, but in no way would I 
 call Jim the curator.  But that is in the past.  
 
 I'm just the messenger here, but what I do know for certain is that the 
 owner of the R.N. Collection is Ron's wife, Petra Hartman. 
 I know that she has designated (in a notarized letter)  a friend of the 
 family to be in charge of the collection.  He has agreed in writing: 
 that he will not be paid for this work - not for labor, nor for expenses.  
 This is the person that I am calling the present curator.  
 By the way,  I am also volunteering my time and effort with this collection 
 pro bono at the request of the curator (and as a friend of the family).  
 So, forgive me if I show little patience with all of these distractions. 
 
 Reader's of this List should take note that I have clearly stated what I 
 know to be fact from those statements which are only to the best of my 
 knowledge. 
 Too many posts to this List are stating conjecture and opinion (promoting an 
 agenda) as if it were actual fact.  This is not to reflect on those who have 
 replied to this thread.  
 But recent threads have been perfect examples.   Personal agendas about the 
 meteorite market, the Tucson Show, the BLM, and Nevada meteorites have been 
 shown to have no basis in reality, let alone in fact.  This is resulting in 
 a great deal of misinformation.  
 What I find worse is that obviously untrue statements are going 
 unchallenged.  With the sole exception of Mike Farmer, nobody is questioning 
 these posts for their basis in fact.  
 
 Whoa!!  Just saw all of the replies about my post.  Gotta go; no more time 
 left for dispelling rumors...

 The only actual
 curator would be Jim Hartman, Ron's son. I
 worked with Jim over the course of 12 months to acquire a
 large amount of the collection. I know of 3 other people who
 also bought from Jim. The only thing I am calling myself is
 grateful. A fair number of these pieces will remain in my
 collection forever like my 32.5kg Campo, 13kg Canyon Diablo
 found by Ron himself and 20g slice of Thiel Mountain an
 Antarctic pallasite, to name a few.
 
 My only regret is that I never got a chance to meet this great man.
 
 I have been selling some of his collection and will continue to do so.
 
 I will also continue to buy old collections, so if anyone is considering 
 doing so
 then let me know.
 
 Best,
