Re: [meteorite-list] (House-AD): Two special Chelyabinsk individualswith Brown Lee-side Crust - color-oriented!

2013-05-27 Thread Meteoriteshow
Dear Martin and All,

That's very interesting indeed and I also have a meteorite that shows some
similarities with your description, Martin.

You can have a look
at:http://meteoriteshow.free.fr/images/for_sale/July_2007/Benguerir/bengueri
r-79.6g(1).jpg where you will see a Benguerir fragment showing two different
colours of fusion crust: very black on one side and brownish on the other
side. Here again, no oxidation from the stay on the earth's ground and the
darker fusion crust overlaps the brownish one.

My guess at the time I got it, was simply a matter of primary fusion crust
(the brownish one) and secondary fusion crust (the darker one). Could it be
a matter of altitude where it was formed? Speed & temperature of fusion?...

Have a great day!

Brown Lee-side Crust - color-oriented!
Importance : Haute

Hello there,

we have to share with you a pretty exciting observation.
It was here already on the list, that some of you found on the first-pick
Chelyabinskis places with a brownish, nevertheless fresh fusion crust. That
phenomenon btw. you had sometimes also on a few Tissints, there the brown
crust was even translucent (were horribly difficult to sell, because people
watching the photos were skeptical, thought, they wouldn't be fresh, but
weathered - and that, where no iron is present in Tissint to rust). 

Many of you blossomed during the last 3 months into true
Chelyabinsk-experts,
so please, pay attention to those two individuals and tell us your opinion:

75.45g

http://www.meteoritenhaus.de/img/Chelyabinsk_68_37_g_04.JPG


Well, baffling, aren't they?

Both of them have a side, and ONLY one side, which is fully coated by the
brown crust,
while all other sides are black, as usual.

Here:
http://www.meteoritenhaus.de/img/Chelyabinsk_68_37_g_02.JPG

And here:
http://www.meteoritenhaus.de/img/Chelyabinsk_75_45_g_02.JPG


And you see, that the brown-side is framed all around by a lipping, which is
black,
hence most would therefore say, only because of the rollover-lip, that the
stones are flight-oriented.
At least one can say, by means of the circular lipping around the edges,
that the stones had for a longer time a stable position in flight.
And that the brown side is the backside, the lee-side.

And what is striking, is, that the lipping overlaps the brown crust, hence
the brown crust must have formed simultaneously, while the front surface was
melting.

Now one could speculate, what could have caused that different crust - from
the chip missing in one of the stones, we see that the material beneath the
brown crust isn't special (anyway, on the sides the fusion crust for the
same material is black).
Thus maybe the different color could stem from a lack of oxygen, when it
melted, on the lee-side of the stone in flight, where one has a low
pressure/partial vacuum?

We think, one could even speak of a new category of orientation:

COLOR-ORIENTED!


Well, if you like to have them, what shall we do with so special
specimens...
Let's make 20$/g to be among the very cheapest Chelyabinsk-offerers,
+ 50cents for the lipping, where others would scream: oriented, oriented!
+ 1.5$/g for the fantastic "color-orientation"...

Makes22$/g.


Fascinating, aren't they?

Hi Steve, Fred, all...

Marvelous!

Now we saw examples of Bensour, "Mauretania", Chelyabinsk and have from old
literature Pultusk and Mocs..

...seems that Captain Blood's "Orientata" needs a new chapter:
"Color-Orientation"!

(Fascinating, after such a long time spent with meteorites, we from the
Meteorite House weren't aware of that phenomenon, 
you always can learn something new!).

Though we have to have some discipline and to be cautious, not to establish
a new artificial hype or to create a new fashion, multiplying the prices,
as it had happened, if you remember, first with the "hammers", then with the
"meteorites with holes" and again afterwards with the "irons with impact
craters".

At least now the Ensisheim visitor have an additional hint, what to look
for, if they'll rummage the tables of the Russian colleagues, which will sag
from the loads of fantastic Chelyabinsk individuals.

Cheers!

CLASSIFICATION :
Tanezrouft 
057    
25°16’N-0°09’EAlgeriaFound 
2002 December 23Carbonaceous 
chondrite (C4)A 
large (5.4 kg), dark grey, moderately compact stone, lacking 
fusion crust was found by F. Beroud and C Boucher.Mineralogy 
and classification (B. Devouard and J.L. Devidal, 
UBP ; B. Zanda and M. Denise, MNHNP).Large chondrules 
(around 1 mm in diameter); matrix around 50% but locally 
more abundant (~70%), numerous irregular whitishinclusions 
up to 3 mm, and occasional zoned CAls up to 17 
mm. In addition, several large (up lo 2.5 cm} dark greyinclusions, 
show a finer grained petrology, with no (or extremely 
rare} chondrules or CAIs. More of these fine-grained 
inclusions are visible at the surface of the hand sample. 
The meteorite is nearly equilibrated : olivines are around 
Fa30±4 except for a few un-equilibrated chondrules ; OPX 
range from Fs3 to Fs30, with a mean at Fs19. The groundmass 
is highly re-crystallized, with homogeneous olivine, 
orthopyroxene and plagioclase grains around 100 µm in 
size. The groundmass is texturally equilibrated ; although most 
grains seem to be porous. Magnetite is the dominant opaque 
mineral, associated with minor FeS, Ni-rich monsulfide, 
minor pentlandite and possibly pyrite. Outside chondrules, 
small magnetite grains and minute sulfide grains are 
scattered within the matrix. No metal was observed. However, 
iron hydroxides patches are visible, and metal or sulfides 
may be have been obliterated by terrestrial weathering. 
The numerous irregular inclusions retain a line-grained 
texture made of plagioclase and clinopyroxene that may 
be metamorphosed CAls. The overall characteristics of this 
meteorite are consistent with a C4 classification, with affinities 
to the CV oxidized subgroup and/or the CK group.Specimens

Hello the list,
 
Thanks for the information about this on-line 
version of The Catalogue of Meteorites by Monica Grady. I did not know that it 
was available on line.
Just a comment : it has not been up-dated yet, and 
ends with Meteoritical Bulletin # 86 records (MB 87 datas have not been 
entered).
 
All the best

[meteorite-list] meteoriteshow

2003-10-23 Thread meteoriteshow



Hello the List,
 
I have already sent few messages to the List since 
I got filed a week ago, but did not really introduce myself (even 
though some of you may know me already).
Christophe and I have started searching for 
meteorites in Sahara Desert about 2 years ago, organizing 3 expeditions so far. 
We have found something like 100 different individuals, including 5 
carbonaceous chondrites that have been classified by MNHN Paris, 1 Ureilite and 
probably 1 impact melt (that are not classified yet, under analysis at ENS 
Lyon).
We have been very lucky for our first trip (10 
meteorites , finding the first CM2 from Algeria (Acfer 331 - TKW 750g), one nice 
CV3 containing beautiful CAIs (Acfer 328 - TKW 180g) and two non-paired CO3 
(Acfer 332 - TKW 115g & Acfer 333 - TKW 489g). And what to say about the 
wonderful feeling we had, when discovering a 30kg ordinary chondrite (Acfer 329 
- L4/L5 W0), half buried !... We got quite crazy, dancing and screaming around 
this stone lost in the middle of nowhere. Hopefully there was nobody to see us, 
else I guess we would have been taken to some asylum... That was really 
unbelievable for a first attempt, moving around for one week only 
!!!
Our second trip was in April-May 2002. Sand storms 
and high temperatures in Tanezrouft did not help that much to keep concentrated 
on watching around in order to find those black space rocks. For one week, we 
had 55 to 57°C between 12 and 4 pm. But, this is when we found "Naomie", a 5.4 
kg carbonaceous chondrite that has been officially named Tanezrouft 057 by the 
Meteoritical Society, classified by the MNHN Paris as a C4 anomalous. This stone 
is amazing. There is no fusion crust at all despite it was almost completely 
buried but it is very dark, from the black colour of its matrix. And cutting 
slices is so exciting, as each new section shows incredible inclusions (CAIs, 
Dark Inclusions) and clasts ! If some of you like to see some pictures, you can 
link to the page of our web site : http://meteoriteshow.free.fr/meteoriteshow%20angl/pages%20meteorites/ck4.html.
And during our last trip, we did not find any 
carbonaceous chondrite upon the 43 individuals that we brought back, but as 
mentioned before we got one Ureilite weighing 68g and an even smaller stone 
weighing 50g which is highly suspected to be an impact melt...
 
We started searching for meteorites as Desert 
lovers who heard about the fact that some have been found over there, who were 
looking for more good reasons to enjoy those wonderful landscapes. And I can 
tell you, this is a great experience and we will go again this winter, searching 
for new finds and why not witnessing a fall one evening at the bivouac when 
watching shooting stars (this is our dream of course !).
 
Well, I don't want to make it so long, but should 
you like to see more about our collection and expeditions, you can have a look 
at our web site : http://www.meteoriteshow.com. Any 
comment is welcome, specially about possible mistakes that you may detect as we 
may have left some ! I will be glad to answer to you if you have some questions. 
Should any of you be interested in some complete meteorites (that are non 
classified ordinary chondrites with no real scientific interest but nice 
shapes) or slices of classified meteorites, we have some for sale in order 
to finance our trips and will be happy to respond your requests. From time to 
time, we put on line a list of slices for sale with pictures and will inform the 
List. All of them are duly documented with pictures and GPS coordinates, 
supplied with an authenticity certificate, and we can send pictures snapped on 
site and the complete ID cards can be downloaded from our web site.
 
That's all for now folks !
 
All the best
 
Frederic Beroudwww.meteoriteshow.com
 
PS : I have a question. As a new comer to the 
community of meteorites, I am trying to become an IMCA member, but after more 
than a month since I contacted them I never got any reply... Does anybody 
can help ?

Hello John,

I just took a look at my e-mails while drinking my coffee, and had a nice
trip thanks to you. It's really nice and makes me think about my feelings
when in the middle of the Sahara Desert... Feeling small but at the same
time part of something huge, and therefore not feeling afraid. It's only a
matter of scale (as long as nothing serious happens) !
Thanks John.

2003-11-28 Thread meteoriteshow



Hi all and Lars,
 
We fully agree with you, this would be great and we 
could use it when we go hunting for meteorites or go on a crater for impactite. 
Should you need us to join th edemand to Garmin, we are with you !
 
Keep well

  symbol for Garmin GPS
  
  
  Hi 
  all
   
  How 
  about if we all asked Garmin about adding a symbol we could used for making 
  waypoints for impact craters in our GPS units?
   
  I mean 
  there are symbols for allot of different things, but no useful ones for 
  craters.
   
  Maybe 
  even a symbol for meteorites?
   
  I have 
  tried to make them make a symbol for botanical localities, without luck, 
  so I thought if we were several people who asked, maybe we would 
  succeed...
   
  Best

Re: [meteorite-list] Dry Lake Grand Tour

2003-12-13 Thread meteoriteshow
Dear Adam and List Members,

Your dry lake expeditions sound interesting, and actually remind me our
expeditions in some areas of the Sahara Desesrt, where lots of lava stones
can be found as well. Of course, we are looking for easier areas, but
sometimes have to deal with such places.
During our first trip on Reg Acfer in Algeria, we spent two days moving
around in Aguemour area, south east of Acfer, where we eventually found one
meteorite (Aguemour 016), while we can find 2 to 4 pieces a day on "plain"
regs (but sometimes 0!). But finding a meteorite in a difficult place makes
it even more precious to us (without speaking about selling price, which
will not be higher most of the time) and provides such a satisfaction!
All the best to you and Merry X-Mas.

I also cut small slabs with a Dremmel from time to time, and use water as a
coolant. I actually fitted the tool on a banch and fitted a small water
container under the blade (so that it catches some water) with a kind of
flap behind it and on the top, so that it does not throw too much water
away. This way, I do not breath this poisonous dust. And a dust mask is
actually not a bad idea, even the way I use my Dremmel.

  Chirsian and all:
  The list policy is already clear.  Policy#8 states - "Do not post - 
  major advertisement- emails to the list - use a 'sale' link".  This 
  policy was later ammended on the list to require the word "AD" in the subject 
  line so that list members would be clear that the email contained an ad.
  I think the problem arrose when some list members posted their ebay 
  auctions daily, spamming the list.  For example one member in particular 
  would say
  "I have ebay auctions ending in 7 days"  then "I have ebay auctions 
  ending in 6 days", then "I have ebay auctions ending in 5 days", etc 
  etc.  You get the idea.
  Members won't even quit fighting and using vulgar language on this 
  list which is a much much bigger problem than the occasional ebay ad 
  announcement.
  As long as the word "AD" appears in the subject, I do not see a problem as 
  this allows all list members to decide for themselves if they wish to open an 
  "AD" email.

[meteorite-list] AD - Meteorite related Land Art by Jean Verame: a strange meteorite...

2003-12-15 Thread meteoriteshow



Dear List Members,
 
I have added on our web site some pictures of a strange find 
coming from the Sahara Desert... Looking like a meteorite, this unusual object 
was actually made by Man's hands, and these hands belong to the Belgian "Land 
Artist", Jean Verame.
He actually made 1000 "bronze meteorite", some of them 
painted in blue (!), and dropped them over the Sahara Desert from a plane in 
1995. 5 of those "bronze meteorite" only, have been recovered so far, and one of 
them (#606 / 1000) is shown on our site :
in English: http://meteoriteshow.free.fr/PAVE-J.VERAME-angl.pdf (239Ko 
pdf file)
in French: http://meteoriteshow.free.fr/PAVE-J.VERAME-fra.pdf (dossier 
pdf de 239Ko)
 
You can also reach those pages via our second home page: http://meteoriteshow.free.fr/
 
Do not heasitate to contact me, should you like to have more 
details, or wish to purchase this very rare item. We provide a book by Jean 
Verame displaying those works and GPS coordinates of the 
find.
 
I agree that it is not a real meteorite and do not try to 
show it as one. But it is definitely "meteorite related", from the way it 
reached the Sahara Desert (from the air) and the way it was found, actually 
hunting meteorites!
 
Hoping that you will enjoy this news,
 
Kind regards.

therfore I have decided to add some more 0.2g and 0.3g fragments for sale after 
the only one proposed got purchased. One more 0.2g was bought since then, but 
you still have the choice between one 0.2g and two 0.3g fragments.
We still porpose a 10% discount to List Members on 
prices stated on our web site :

Re: [meteorite-list] Dry Lake Stewnfields??

2003-12-16 Thread meteoriteshow



Hi Doug and List,
 
I also wonder about another point on meteorite 
falls... Since I started hunting them, I thought that they can fall anywhere, 
the location of their landing place depending on their orbit around the sun and 
the angle they meet the Earth with. Is that right or are there any areas on our 
planet where they get more "attracted" ?
There have been more finds in Antarctic than 
anywhere else, but I guess that it's simply because people have been searching 
for them there for a longer time, but can it be for another reason ? Has the 
magnetic field linking the poles any effect (like for boreal auroras) ? 
...
I'm not a scientist and maybe my question sounds 
strange, but should anybody have a clear and easy to understand explanation, 
thanks in advance for sending it, just for my knowledge.
Kind regards

  Subject: Re: [meteorite-list] Dry Lake 
  Stewnfields??
  Hi John, I think if we get back to basic 
  definitions, a strewn field is an ellipsoid shape caused by a mid air 
  explosion raining down material, as far as I understand.  What happens 
  afterwards to the material is irrelevant.  And the strewn field is a 
  geometric representation fitted to the fall in practice, not the actual 
  individual stones.  If some gets moved, picked clean, the boundaries of 
  the strewn field can't change, from their original definition.Perhaps 
  some of the hunters among us will not see it that way...as strewn tends to 
  bring a connotation of waltzing in and cleaning up.  And an empty strewn 
  field sounds odd...So I would think that the technical "set one 
  straight answer" you want is that:  Mathematically it takes at least four 
  border points to make an ellipse, but to actually be able to fit one with any 
  confidence in an area, you need plenty more, to fill in the area.  A neat 
  statistical definition seems impractical, so it will come down top the field 
  researcher's opinion.  If the one who did the research wants to call it a 
  strewn field and their is evidence for a mid air explosion...then we should 
  have one.  And if there are a few rocks...in the desert, or in Chicago, 
  and the principal investigator(s) don't feel there is enough for an ellipse, 
  then its not, because they say so.  An it is a good assumption if we 
  happen upon an old scattered field, we can say...this might be a strewn field, 
  but lacking a good cause-effect ellipse explanation there can't be a right 
  answer for lack of data.  In the end one can probably collect opinions on 
  this until blue in the face...and who calls what a what...but for 
  what?Strewn fields are simply human categories so we can make sense 
  out of natural events that don't have to conform to our neat, ways of 
  nomenclature.  Just like the concept of a species or a race in 
  biology.  You know an obvious one when you see it...but when you start 
  taking it as gospel and look at the limits of the definition, the whole think 
  breaks down, and mass consensus isn't reached...plus air resistance already 
  distorts a strewn field to a researcher.  So there has got to be a little 
  eyeballing going on since tiny particles don't fall nicely.  If it looks 
  like a strewn field, (tastes like one), ...Sipping my hot 
  chocolate...SaludosDoug DawnMexicoEn un mensaje con fecha

Questions/observations in regards to desert strewnfields.1. 
Obvious groupings of fallen masses would make the likelihood of the area 
being a meteorite stewnfield. Do multiple finds in desert locale usually 
get described as a stewnfield?2. Does the fact that many rocks 
get moved around in these environments take the strewnfield idea down a 
notch with rocks being scattered?...or does their proximity within the 
bounds of normal surface movements qualify them to be still within the 
original strewnfield? 3. Is the idea of stating a location has a new 
strewnfield more about this location being a new place to find more than 
one meteorite of the same apparent fall?...and not so much about the 
actual fall characteristics?I guess I'm just curious about the use 
of word strewnfield in this case?Yearning to be set

Re: [meteorite-list] Patterns in Sikhote-Alin

2003-12-16 Thread meteoriteshow
Dear David,

Melting while crossing the atmosphere is "superficial". Meteorites lose a
major part of their weight (less for irons than stones) that burns away to
ashes, but the inside of the meteorite remains at space temperature (i.e.
abour -270°C). This is the main reason whay they often break into fragments
in the atmosphere (because of high stresses due to temperature difference
btween the inside and the "burning skin"), and actually this is what
happened to Sikhote Alin, providing numerous fragments. As almost of all
them show regmaglypts, this means that it happened in the high atmosphere,
high enough to allow the fragments to keep on burning for a while. But the
inside did not melt. For smaller fragments, the inside most probably heated
up, but not to melting point.
This is my understanding, and should I be wrong, please do not heasitate to
let me know as I'm always open to learning more!

Re: [meteorite-list] the 2nd person to sell orrissa

2003-12-16 Thread meteoriteshow
I think that most of the people who ask for those pointless discussions to
stop do not want to know who started nor who is "the good one" and "the bad
one". All this sounds like a children's fight and I'm one of those who are
fed up with receiving such messages.
Should you have any problem with anyone, please try and solve it directly
with the person who is concerned, but please do not exchange insults on the
list like this.
I had sent no message so far about that topic and will not send anymore. I
just wanted to "support" those who expressed a similar opinion already.
All the best to all.
Kind regards

  How meteorites where first found in Antartica:
   
  Did you mention that lots of antartic is covered with ice two miles deep 
  so that if your driving around in your snow mobile and hear a 
  "thump..thump" cause you hit a rock, you've found a meteorite fallen from the 
  sky.

Meteorites are found in Antarctica because, in several places, the

anything that has fallen into the ice left, or churned up by the ice

formation they were formerly buried in. Against the white background

I'm thinking of it actually. I have a friend who is 
travelling in Northern Canada or Greenland from time to time, on skis and towing 
a bourka, and I may go with him in about two years (long term plan!). And then, 
should it come true, you can be sure that I will watch the ground while towing 
my bourka!!!

  Why do people look for meteorites out in the desert or on dried lake 
  beds? (Rhetorical question) More so in Antartica.
   
  There are lots of terrestial rocks in Antartica in the mountains and near 
  the shores. Just look at those penguin rookeries. However you don't find ice 
  sheets in the Sahara. The bedrock can be as much as two miles beneath the 
  surface of these. These glaciers also flow as a block few inches a 
  year taking these fallen rocks with them.This natural conveyor belt 
  concentrates ancient falls near the foothills of mountain ranges where 
  sublimation and wind re-exposes these ancient falls.
   
  I've have friend who have gone to Antartica but you can only take back 
  pictures. Try Greenland.

Of course, landing is far from being done! It is

Greetings,
 
I am building a web portal for people 
interested in meteorites and collecting. To make it clear: this isn’t my 
personal site, nor is it where I intend to sell meteorites. I am doing this 
serving the community and hoping to create a place where potential 
collectors can seek and find 
information.
 
The site will go live in January, so this 
is an advance warning and an invitation. Let me just tell you what I intend 
to do:
 
World of Meteorites is based on a CMS 
(content management system). This means that users of the site can add their 
own content and share it with the world. For you, it means that you could 
post a newsbit pointing to your ebay auctions or share an article about 
meteorites with others. I will add some other modules to this site, like a 
gallery for meteorites, a FAQ, forums, encyclopedias and so on. I will 
advertise the site on other sites and directories, and I hope it becomes 
rather popular. I have some experience with these things, I also run one of

Re: [meteorite-list] meteorite slices

2004-01-05 Thread meteoriteshow
Dear friends,
I agree with Guy and can assure that our slices have at least one side
polished. We keep sometimes one side rough from sawing when it helps to see
some details of the structure to appear compared with a polished surface
that makes it darker, and when it does not affect structure details we
polish both sides. But anyway, I agree that this information should always
be indicated when proposing a slice for sale, a good picture of the item
being also necessary for a buyer to know what he pays for.
And in addition to that, polishing causes a loss of material, and even if
some few collectors can polish themselves a slice that they have purchased,
they should not pay for material that will go off later!
All the best.

Dear Greg,

If the slice is not too big, it is possible to polish it by hand with
grinding papers of different grades, doing it carefully on a flat surface
under some running water to remove the particles. Of course, the type of
grinding paper should be chosen so that it can be used with water (like the
one used for cars body work). Grades can be 240, then 400, 800 and 1200 for
a very smooth finishing. 3M for instance offers a wide range of grinding
papers that can be used for that. If saw marks are quite deep, you can start
with a diamond coated plate under running water (there is a supplier in US:
EZE LAP), and then finish with grinding paper.
Of course, this is an "artisanal" way, but gives good results for few slices
to be polished. Chose the last grade according to the result that you like
the most, as polishing makes the surface darker, and sometimes it is better
not to go for to fine grade of paper, just stopping when marks cannot bee
seen anymore by eye (but could be still visible under a binocular).It all
depends on what you want to obtain.

Kind regards

Sorry I forgot something important!
As polishing should be done under running water to get the best results, it
is a good idea to dry your slices after. Letting them dry by themselves is a
solution, but as it is a slow process (depending on the size of the slice
and quantity of water trapped inside) and then metal flakes can start
corroding on the surface (chondrites for instance). My advice is then to put
them in the oven for about 20 to 40 minutes, at about 50°C, turning the
slices up side down in the middle of the drying process. This is faster, and
corrosion will not have time to develop.
Bye now.

Dear Adam,

Really well done, it's a great find that you purchased and I hope that
you'll keep the list updated with results of analysis in the near future!
I'm leaving soon for hunting and hope that I'll bring back something like
that!!!

[meteorite-list] Hunting meteorites

2004-01-31 Thread meteoriteshow



Dear List members,
 
We've been very quiet for the two past weeks 
as we were preparing our next expedition... We leave in a couple of days to the 
Sahara Desert and should be back by the 15th of March...
We wish a very good Tucson Show to all 
of you who will attend it, and hope we'll be there next 
year.
All the Best.

[meteorite-list] Back from the Sahara

2004-03-31 Thread meteoriteshow



Hello to everyone & evreybody!
 
I've been off for more than a month, for a trip 
in the Sahara Desert, where I was expecting to find some new meteorites... We 
were three cars leaving from France, and after a few days needed to reach our 
"target", we started moving around and started by finding some neolithic stone 
tools and fulgurites. But the strewnfield of meteorites was still some hundreds 
of km further, when one of the other cars had a mechanical breakdown. Too much 
electronic devices in this car, and we could not find any solution to make it 
run again. One solution only was possible: to make a U-turn, towing that car 
back to the ferry in Tunis. It took us more than a week, and we finally managed 
to bring it back.
But then, what is the result of that trip? No 
meteorite as you can imagine... Or maybe one stone that is doubtfull and that I 
brought back, but I have not much hope. I'll show it soon to the MNHN in Paris. 
But some beautiful neolithic stone tools, such as arrow heads, axes, grinding 
bowls & grinders, etc... and also a nice batch of fulgurites. I'll show some 
on our website as soon as possible, but even before that, should some of you be 
interested in getting some pics, you can e-mail us and I'll come back to you! I 
will also put some pictures of the expedition on line.
 
Anyway, this experience shows that meteorites are 
not that easy to find. Even when one knows where to go, he's never sure to reach 
the place. He's not even sure to find any when reaching the place. We were quite 
lucky the previous times we went hunting in the Sahara, and this time I guess we 
were quite lucky to bring back the faulty car, as we had to cross some dunes on 
our way,which was not an easy job for my friend who was towing 
it...
 
So, sorry for not being able to show some new 
meteorites this time, but we'll go again as soon as possible, hoping that we'll 
be more successful! In the meantime, we wait for our new classified meteorites 
to be published in the Meteoritical Bulletin, including one ureilite and a nice 
tiny impact melt that we found in November 2002, and we'll let you know as soon 
as they will appear in MB #88.
 
All the best to you!

Dear List members,
 
I fully agree with Chris. I do not post so often on the 
List, but I try to read most of the messages and even though I use the so famous 
DELETE BUTTON when I don't find the message interesting, I have to read at least 
the first lines in order to find out whether I should delete or not. And I'm 
tired with this fight that should remain private. So please keep it private, so 
that we can keep on exchanging information about meteorites...
 
As a matter of fact, the latest provisional Met Bul #88 
was shown on the Internet yesterday, and I have a few new Acfer and Tanezrouft 
chondrites included, for those who might be interested, please contact me. Chris 
(my partner in meteorite hunting) and I found all of them during our expeditions 
in Algeria in 2002.
 
All the best.

  Hello all -
      Some of you sellers know me, as I've bought from you 
  over the past years. Others don't know me, of course. 
      I've never posted before. But now - really, folks - 
  I'd just like to pick up some info about meteorites. I'm just a collector who 
  wants to know more. I've so enjoyed seeing Bernd Pauli's messages over the 
  past few weeks.
      To be honest, I did enjoy all of the to-and-fro with 
  Matteo a bit. It was a hoot reading his fractured English! But now things seem 
  to have gotten out of hand. People who want to bicker should feel free to - 
  privately. All of this posting to the entire list suggests generals trying to 
  rally troops to their side. I'm not quite ready to unsubscribe, but I'm a 
  half-step from it.
      Please, people: I can't believe that I'm alone in 
  this. Bush vs. Kerry is one thing, but Mark vs. Bill is another. How about 
  some new NWA info instead?
      Best wishes to all (sincerely),
      
  Chris Rouse

Welcome back to the List Mark.
I believe sometimes it's difficult to keep cool when one feels attacked and 
wants to defend himself! As far as such a List is concerned, when attacked in 
public, we then can feel like showing other members that its is not fair and get 
into a kind of "vicious cercle" from which it's then difficult to get out. I 
guess you have done it, so I'm glad that now I can read some of your news 
and comments again, that are most of the time a source of knowledge to 
me.
All the best.

  Subject: [meteorite-list] OT: I am 
  back
  
  
  Hello Everyone,
  Well.I guess I am back. 
  I have to be honest, it is hard for me to get upsetand even harder for 
  me to remain upset. Strange thing happened yesterday. I went out to eat with 
  my mother and father. While this may not sound to strange, you should 
  understand neither has spoken in 15 years and neither seemed to have any 
  desire. They are now retirement age and my dad returned home last year, after 
  doing aircraft contract work the last 10 years. My mother returned from the 
  Philippines last year as well. Their dislike for each other had me organizing 
  two Thanksgiving dinners and two Christmas dinners. Yet, yesterday they sat 
  across the table beside each other, neither fighting for the empty seat 
  besides me. Sometimes it takes a few days for someone to calm down, sometimes 
  it takes 15 years I guess.
  I get a mass of meteorite e-mails from "newbies" and I try to answer them 
  the best I can.  From time to time I get referenced from someone I 
  consider well-know ledged and from at other times I get contacted by 
  various organizations.  Google seems to like my website and I sure that 
  helps attract these e-mails as well. There are many list members that know a 
  lot more then me, several have nicer collections then me and as a hunter, I 
  have to be somewhere in the bottom tier. It is hard for me to consider myself 
  an "expert" in a field I feel mostly overshadowed by my peers. So I am humbled 
  by the responses I have gotten via e-mail from list members about our latest 
  "tiff".  I am humbled my thoughts have any emotional effects on 
  others.
  So, I am back, and I will try not to let "repeat" this last week. Not so 
  much in self-censorship but more so in sending e-mails to the list. I 
  understand now greater Mike Farmer's list "fights". He is emotionally attached 
  to meteorites, and his e-mails come from this emotion Perhaps I am more 
  emotionally attached to these rocks then I realized. And while I never 
  considered myself that great of a contributor to the list, it is quite clear 
  from your e-mails (and phone calls) that many of you do. 
  I ask that you forgive me for not keeping my typically cool head, and 
  perhaps for making a small situation worse. I will try not to feed the ducks 
  from now on, or let others make me a duck.
