Re: [meteorite-list] Brahin & co
Hello, Thanks to all for the advices. However, I think I will never by a Bhahin again. I have a piece of Esquel since June 2000 (Ensisheim show) and it is still as I bought.

Even then, the specimen has to be dried in an oven to get the remaining humidity off". Here is a tip of an old timer chemist. To remove alcohol (ethanol) that was used in a preliminary step to remove water, pull the sample in di-ethyl ether first. Ethanol being miscible in ether, it will get readily admixed with it and easily removed through evaporation, along with (major) ether that is highly volatile. The last races of volatile ether are then be more readily removed through gentle heating. Back to Brahin, I totally agree with your comments about Esquel and Imilac. Perhaps we can add here Springwater as well (my very old slice once traded by...NIninger, is still fresh as new, with no protection, in humid Belgium...). After 2 bad experiences with Brahin, I opted the solution proposed by Martin. My epoxy-sealed Brahin is, since 1999, as new. Just sad not being able to fondle it... Marcin, thanks for your tips about Dronino. I may buy some oil from you soon. But my Dronino from Sergey Vassiliev however proved remarkably stable, still without protection, since now almost 3 years... This is as for some other meterites: it could depend on the exact place of the parent chunk where the slice was cut from. There could be stable and labile Droninos as there are "poorly stable" and even "less poorly stable" Brahins Best wishes, Zelimir Prof. Zelimir Gabelica Université de Haute Alsace ENSCMu, Lab.

Re: [meteorite-list] Ensisheim
Hello Jörn, steve and list, I bought the slice in June 2002, In august 2002, the slice starts to fell apart. Then, I put it in a Tupperware full with isopropilic alcohol at 99,9% and I sealed the Tupperware in a plastic bag. I was waiting to find a solution. But I forgot it there and I opened the Tupperware last week. I found no more alcohol and the Brahin in very bad shape. I live in Montreal, Canada; In general moderately wet. Vincent - Original Message - From: "Jörn Koblitz" <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> To: Sent: Wednesday, June 15, 2005 9:26 AM Subject: WG: [meteorite-list] Ensisheim Hello Vincent, A nice slice (before). Although I don't know this dealer, I would be careful to blame him on this. Brahin is well known as a heavy ruster. If you don't store the material in a very, very dry environment (e.g. Excicator w/desiccant), noone can really guarantee for a "lifelong" integrity of such material (even if some do). However, I must admit that the slice (after) isn't in a very good shape indeed. When did you buy the slice?

Re: [meteorite-list] NWA 869
Concerning NWA 869 I have in my possession tree fragments: - m1 = (630 ± 0,5) g that I bought from Dean Bessey - m2 = (65,4 ± 0,1) g bought from Walter Branch - m3 = (41,3 ± 0,1) g bought from Walter Branch Vincent - Original Message - From: "Jeff Grossman" <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> To: Sent: Monday, June 13, 2005 8:22 AM Subject: [meteorite-list] NWA 869 Okay list, time to make yourselves useful... Everybody wants the NomCom to publish and make official the name NWA 869. So please, if you know anything, help contribute to the facts so I can produce a writeup for submission to the committee. Here's what I've got: * At least 400 kg of material has been sold out of markets in Morocco under this name. * Alan Rubin classified a piece. It was a fragmental breccia, probably L4-6. A thin section of L5 material gave Fa24.2, S3, W1. So what's the rest of the story? How much is out actually there? When did it appear on the market? Is it all coming from one finder/dealer? Is the find location known? Is it really L4-6 (is this the right range)? Is it all coming from the same fall, or is the name NWA 869 a garbage can for all kinds of unclassified ordinary chondrites? What large stones are in collections? Are other NWAs paired with 869? Which? Please reply to the list only... I don't need a separate copy. jeff Dr. Jeffrey N.
