In memoriam Jim Kriegh:

Kring, Kriegh, and John Blennert and Ingrid Monrad, also of
the Oro Valley-Tucson area, collaborate in collecting and
mapping the Gold Basin meteorite fragments, which range in
size from a peanut to a 3-pound softball that Blennert recovered.

Best wishes from Germany,

Hello Jim, Hello All,

I don’t know how that could happen but it did happen! Each year after Jim’s 
passing away, on October 10, I wrote a few lines on Meteorite Central to 
commemorate this great, modest man! Not so this time … I had simply overlooked 
the entry in my calendar! But I know Jim will not be angry with me. He knows I 
did not do this on purpose! Wednesday, October 10, 2012 was already the fifth 
year that our esteemed Jim Kriegh left us for good to live among the celestial 
messengers that he loved and cherished like we all do! So … if you can spare a 
minute or two, remember Jim!

 Jim, Twink, John, and Dr Kring, it was their unremitting efforts that
 gave Gold Basin and its meteorites a place in the Hall of Meteorites!

Best wishes,

Bernd

Hello Bernd,

how much count 4 planetary days of delay against heavenly periods? Nothing.

Unfortunately never having had the pleasure to know Jim and Twink 
personally, I underline your intention. What attracts me much is the obvious 
constellation of innocence and passion which led them to discovering the 
strewnfield of Gold Bassin. And to communicate with the meteorite community 
far more.


Jim and Twink and companions: the meteorite world owes you so much! May it 
be on cloud GB or even down here.


Best regards,
Matthias

2011-10-10 Thread Bernd V. Pauli
KRING D.A. et al. (1998) Gold Basin Meteorite Strewn Field: The ‘Fossil’
remnants of an asteroid that catastrophically fragmented in Earth’s atmosphere
(Lunar and Planetary Science XXIX, 1998, excerpts):

The Gold Basin meteorite was discovered by J.D. Kriegh while prospecting
for gold with a metal detector on 24 November 1995 in the eastern portion
of the Mojave Desert. The initial find consisted of two fragments (about 13 g
total mass) which were immediately identified as meteoritic material by one of
us ...

From the morphology of the fragments, it was clear that they were part of a 
larger object. Subsequent field studies by Kriegh, J. Blennert, I. Monrad, ... 
have recovered more than 2000 fragments as of January 1998. Most of these 
fragments were found using metal detecting techniques ...

2008-10-10 Thread bernd . pauli
Hello Meteorite Community,

One year ago, Jim Kriegh, Oro Valley's heart and soul, died at the age of 78.
Saturday, December 02, 2006, Jim wrote me this:  I expect to be able to go
occasionally searching for more meteorites and/or gold but not near as often
as I would like.

I am very confident that Jim is now much closer to these messengers from the
heavens that we all love and cherish so much. Maybe he's watching us from
his little asteroid that bears his name: 149244 Kriegh.

This little asteroid is a member of the so-called Flora family of inner main 
belt asteroids (S-type asteroids) and it is an excellent decision to dedicate
this one to Jim because the Floras are thought to be members of the parent
bodies of the L chondrites, ... Gold Basin is, as we all know. an L-chondrite!

Jim, you may be gone,
but you are not forgotten!

2008-01-11 Thread bernd . pauli
The Meteoritical Society Newsletter, September 2007

James Kriegh

The society is saddened by the passing of Professor James Kriegh, who was a key 
figure in the
renaissance of meteorite search and discovery in Arizona. He was particularly 
well-known for his
discovery of the Gold Basin strewn field, which represents a shower of debris 
created by a multi-
kiloton asteroid collision during the late Pleistocene. Because the debris 
field can potentially
provide a measure of the strength of an impacting asteroid and thus help 
mitigate the hazards
of future impacting asteroids, he painstakingly mapped the locations of 
thousands of meteoritic
stones with his friends Ingrid Monrad and John Blennert.

To preserve the scientific integrity of the Gold Basin site, that team worked 
largely at its own
expense for approximately two years before making the find public. Jim 
collected meteorites with
appropriate permits, provided abundant material to the national meteorite 
collection at the Smith-
sonian Institution, and sent representative samples to other museums and 
researchers.

Jim was an Emeritus Professor of Civil Engineering at   the University of 
Arizona who, once retired,
developed a deep interest in meteoritics. He became a valued collaborator and 
good friend. Jim was
known for his integrity and gentleman's civility, two attributes often 
considered old-fashioned, but
welcome in the field of meteoritics. I was heartened to see his repeated 
successes. While working on
Gold Basin, he and his colleagues discovered several other meteorites. He used 
the  notoriety of those
discoveries to help educate others in the community, including K-12 students, 
about the scientific
value of meteorites and the excitement of scientific discovery.

In addition to his meteorite discoveries and years of teaching, he co-founded a 
town north of Tucson
and is commonly known as the Father of the Town of Oro Valley (incorporated in 
1974); he helped
organize the Oro Valley Historical Society (2005); and was a major force behind 
the town's successful
bid to obtain the historic Steam Pump Ranch (2007), which was built in the 
1870s. Jim Kriegh enriched
his community both in Arizona and in the international field of meteoritics.

(David A. Kring - Houston, Texas)

[meteorite-list] Jim Kriegh, John Blennert, and Twink Monrad / Gold Basin Tribute

2007-10-17 Thread Ruben Garcia
Hi all,
After reading all the beautiful things that everyone
(Especially Notkin and Farmer) wrote about Jim Kriegh
last week, John Gwilliam and I decided that a tribute
was necessary.

For all of you that never had the pleasure of meeting
Jim, this video will help you understand what all the
hoopla was about.

November 25, 2007 will mark the 12 year anniversary of
the discovery of the Gold Basin Strewn Field. 

When Jim Kriegh, the finder of the very first Gold
Basin Meteorite passed away, we lost a wonderful
friend, mentor and an amazing meteorite hunter.

I personally owe a huge debt of gratitude to Jim,
since without his help in the spring of 1998, I may
never have found my first meteorite.

So, we thought it fitting to offer a tribute to Jim as
well has his Gold Basin Hunting partners John Blennert
and Twink Monrad. 

The following is an interview that was originally
filmed By John Gwilliam in Feb, 2003 at the Tucson Gem
and Mineral show.  This interview covers the Gold
Basin Meteorite's humble beginnings all the way to
present day.

here it is..

Hi all,

I am saddened to hear of Jim Kriegh's passing and my condolences to 
all of you who knew and loved him. I did not have the privilege of 
knowing him myself but see that he was dearly loved by many.


How one is remembered by others after passing is testament to ones 
character, and judging by what has been said of Jim just on this

in a place filled with stars greater than any found on earth. He 
lives among the very stars he hunted, and will forever live in our hearts.

  I am honored to say that I did have the chance, and
the privilege, to meet Jim at least one time during a
Tucson show. I am sad that it was only once. Actually,
I have met MANY nice people because of our shared
hobby, and made many new friends. BUT. when I read
such incredibly nice things, written by these same new
friends, it is indeed a powerful testament to the
depth of Jim's character. He truly was a gem of a man.

Dear Jim,

The great crater in our hearts and weeping of our desert-worn eyes caused 
with this news and thought of missing you can't seem real.


We will observe a day of admiration and respect in your honor today: for 
your unique and wonderful accomplishments strewn across the world in the 
field we love, but above all, the kindness, humility, and accessibility with 
which your touched our lives a country away from you.


I am deeply saddened that we never did realize our hunt we discussed 
together, but you have generously accompanied me on many excursions, many 
without my mention (I wish I had said more), and will continue to do so. 
Oro Valley and Tucson are changed for me, and I keep you always in mind as 
one of the few unexpected treasures I found in my life without having to 
look,


Jim, in you, we have a true hero, in the true sense and in every sense.

I was not fortunate enough of ever meeting Jim but, here in the Ensisheim 
area, we all very well know him through his outstanding achievements in the 
strewnfields. But he is even more recognized as a truly kind, humble and 
altruistic person, never sparing his efforts to initiate enthousiastic 
young (and less young) meteorite lovers in field collecting.


My personal thoughts go to Jim's family and many other relatives and 
friends for whom the loss this outstanding man is by all means 
incommensurable.
Jim's memories will never die and all of us will continue for long years to 
read stories about Jim Kreigh and remember his generous accomplishments. 
Jim's memories will bring a vivid recollection furing our future shows, 
forever.


Please accept all my sincere condolences, also on behalf of our small 
community here around.

It was a great pleasure being a friend
Of Jim,
How did that happen? Because the first time I ever met
Him was at his home which he had opened to the community
During one of the Tucson Shows. I had never met him and
Took the opportunity to thank him for having me as one of
His guests. 
He stopped everything he was doing and took me in to
Show me his fabulous collection of rather small but highly
Representative specimens very neatly arranged they made
A truly spectacular display.
He was so friendly from the very first minute we met
That from that moment on I felt like we were good friends -
Because that is just the kind of person he was: A good friend
To all, active of mind but living from they heart, he was an
example not only to  the meteoritic community but to the
human race.

I have a hard time believing it. I saw him just two months ago in  Tucson. 
After a very nice lunch at Twink's, we all went to Jim's house  to look at his 
collection, use his microscope and of course talk about  meteorites. And as 
usual we had a marvelous time. Thank you Twink for bringing  us together one

Jim was a genuine person who reflected with paramount
greatness upon the meteorite collecting community. 
The loss of this kind gentleman will certainly leave a
void that cannot be filled in both our hearts and
minds.  He inspired me through the appreciation he
demonstrated for each and every meteorite regardless
of its history. His enthusiasm for meteorites and
people were endless. It was a privilege to have been
invited to Jim and Twink’s household where their
concern for this hobby was expressed and advanced
through these wonderful gatherings.

I wish Jim’s family and friends serenity and peace
during this trying time. Jim will be forever
remembered, a truly wonderful person!

Re: [meteorite-list] Jim Kriegh +

2007-10-11 Thread Mark Bowling
 Bernd, and everyone, 

I'm sorry to hear that Jim died.  I regret that I didn't attempt to know him
better as I've only visited with him at the show.  I'm reminded that we can
all go at any time and we should try to make the best of each minute here
on earth.  He was very accomplished and was a great role model for all of
us.  I've never heard anything bad spoken of him.  We need more like him.

Rest in peace Jim,

Mark in Vail AZ
