[meteorite-list] Campo del Cielo, Las Palmas, Aruacu. Same or different
All, I am sure this one has been already been answered; if so, please send me to good source (hopefully difinitive) that I might educate myself. There seems to be conflicting 'reads' on these two meteorites: Campo del Cielo, Argentina Las Palmas, Argentina Are they possibly from the same fall, or not.

Re: [meteorite-list] Campo del Cielo, Las Palmas, Aruacu. Same or different
Hi Jonathan, I've been told that Las Palmas is different than Campo. I don't know about the third iron you mentioned. But, Las Palmas has not been classified or approved yet, so nothing is official yet. The source that told me is on this list.

[meteorite-list] Campo del Cielo STAMP. First stamp in 3D
Hi There is a new stamp of the Campo del Cielo meteorites. The block has a stamp of the Chaco meteorite, the main mass of Campo del Cielo. Also pictured in the block is a drawing of the Campo del Cielo Fall. The most amazing thing about this stamp is that the Chaco photo is IN 3- D!. THIS IS THE FIRST STAMP IN 3 DIMENSIONS: http://www.meteorites.com/stamp/stamp.jpg I have available some sets which include: * the block pictured above * a pair of glasses to see the 3D effect: http://www.meteorites.com/stamp/lentes.jpg * a promotional cover for the stamp: http://www.meteorites.com/stamp/folleto1.jpg http://www.meteorites.com/stamp/folleto1b.jpg * and a booklet with the history and description of Campo del Cielo as good as information of the stamp. This is very nice as some of the photos of the booklet ARE ALSO 3D http://www.meteorites.com/stamp/libroext1.jpg http://www.meteorites.com/stamp/libroext2.jpg http://www.meteorites.com/stamp/libroint1.jpg http://www.meteorites.com/stamp/libroint2.jpg The set is U$S 4 each+sh Shipping cost is U$S 4 for 1 to 4 sets, and $10 for 5 or more sets payment can be done by paypal: [EMAIL PROTECTED] Note that the photo and the other 3d pictures seem to be out of focus as you need the 3d glasses to see the 3 dimensional effect.

[meteorite-list] Campo del Cielo auction - The Argentinian answer
Hello this is the answer to the campo del cielo sold on auction Subastaron dos meteoritos descubiertos en Argentina Uno se vendió por más de US$ 90 mil y pesa 161 kilogramos. Fueron encontrados en Campo del Cielo, Chaco, una zona característica por los impactos de objetos celestes. ESCULTURA. El meteorito subastado en 93 mil dólares. (AP) ESCULTURA. El meteorito subastado en 93 mil dólares. (AP) Un meteorito de 161 kilogramos hallado en Argentina fue vendido en US$ 91.3765 en una subasta organizada por la firma Bonhams, en su sede de New York. El aerolito descubierto en el Chaco, en el paraje Campo del Cielo, proviene del cinturón de asteroides ubicado entre Marte y Júpiter, y cayó en la tierra hace miles de años, según los expertos. En la subasta también se vendió, en US$ 1.195, un meteorito esférico de hierro descubierto en 1576 en el mismo lugar, casi cuatro mil años después de haber colisionado con la tierra, según consta en la documentación hecha por exploradores españoles. La venta, que también ofreció un meteorito de Chile, un fòsil de México y un raro pedazo de Luna, cautivó tanto a amantes de la ciencia como de las bellas artes, principalmente coleccionistas privados, decoradores y diseñadores de interiores. Los meteoritos se aprecian cada vez más por su belleza, y es por eso que sus precios están subiendo al nivel de los objetos de arte, dijo a EFE Thomas Lindgren, director del departamento de Historia Natural de Bonhams. Para el experto, se trata de un tipo arte que no ha sido moldeado por la mano del hombre, sino por la naturaleza y energía espaciales. Muy poca gente tiene el lujo de tener en casa una escultura del espacio exterior. Los meteoritos son preciados porque son raros, no abundan. Si reunimos todos los meteoritos que existen, representarían menos de un año de producción de oro, señaló. Los meteoritos subastados en Bonhams provenían de la Colección Macovich, la más grande de meteoritos de hierro estéticos en todo el mundo, y que suele hacer préstamos a instituciones como el Smithsonian y el Museo de Historia Natural de Nieva York. Su propietario, el periodista y aventurero Darryl Pitt, la amasó poco a poco, comprando en exposiciones especializadas en historia natural y a otros coleccionistas privados en Estados Unidos y Europa.

[meteorite-list] Campo del Cielo recovered weight
Dear list, I have been reading post on the list for a few months now. This is my first intervention, I hope some of you will be able to help out. I am working on a virtual exhibition concerning meteorites for the Montreal Planetarium, Canada. One of the sections of the site will present some famous meteorites including Campo del Cielo. I am trying to evaluate the total recovered weight for this meteorite. In Gradys catalogue (page 126), the addition of the numerous masses give a total of 45 tonnes (approximately). The 37 tonnes that Robert Haag tried to buy with no success in 1990 is not cited. Would the real total be 82 tonnes? If so, Camp del Cielo would be the heaviest iron meteorite recovered (in total mass)... Thank you for your help and excuse my English, it is a second language.

Would the real total be 82 tonnes? If so, Camp del Cielo would be the heaviest iron meteorite recovered (in total mass). LIBERMAN R.G. et al. (2002) Campo del Cielo iron meteorite: Sample shielding and meteoroid's preatmospheric size (MAPS 37-2, 2002, pp. 295-300, excerpts from p. 295): Preatmospheric size - radius larger than 300 cm plus a mass of at least 84 kg. Iron = 92.7 %, nickel = 6.15 %, cobalt = 0.42 %, carbon = 0.37 %, phosphorus = 0.28 %. Romana A. and Cassidy W.A. (1972) determined the time of fall to be ca. 4000 years BP by radiocarbon dating of charcoal samples extracted from the bottom of one of the craters. Excavation of two medium-sized craters (crater 9 and 10 - there are more than 20 craters) revealed two pieces of about 5000 kg each buried in one and another piece of about 36000 kg in the other. Assuming a minimum mass of 5000 kg in each of the other 18 craters implies a recovered mass of at least 14 kg (Cassidy, pers. comm.). This value corresponds to an original meteoroid radius of at least 160 cm.

On this matter I have two observations: 1) There is no city or geographic reference with that name in Argentina. In that case the proposed name for the meteorite will be Campo del Cielo II. 2) As the meteorite is from Campo del Cielo, the proprietary is the Goverment of Argentina.

Hello List, I am confused, again! This letter says; 1) There is no city or geographic reference with that name in Argentina. In that case the proposed name for the meteorite will be Campo del Cielo II. Now from this, I would have to guess that if the meteorite is called Pitino And there is no Pitino in Argentina, that this meteorite must not be from Argentina? And; 2) As the meteorite is from Campo del Cielo, the proprietary is the Goverment of Argentina. So is forbidden any people has a fragment of it. It would stand to reason that if this meteorite is not from Argintina then Argintina would not be the proprietary of this meteorite sence it is not from Argintina?

Wow, judge, juror, head of the Meteoritical Society, and God? Who died and made you the head honcho? This is my meteorite, it was legally aquired in the United States. Chaco or yourself have no claim to it. O te puedo escribir en espanol si prefieres? The meteorite is named Pitino, there is a place called Pitino, or the Meteoritical Society would not have named it that. You seem to be the same guy who harrased me two years ago about Campos.

[Re: [meteorite-list] Campo del Cielo meteorites]
Hi List, On hindsight, it seems Joel's Iron was never submitted to the NomCom since it was found in 1858, but it was studied by Buchwald, and later by Wasson Canut de Bon, which establishes this name as authoritative just the same. David __ Hey Mike, Don't worry too much about the name. Heck, it might just as well have been named Mike's Chondrite, which would be consistent with the NomCom's acceptance of the name Joel's Iron from Chile. David There is no city or geographic reference with that name in Argentina. __ Meteorite-list mailing list [EMAIL PROTECTED] http://www.pairlist.net/mailman/listinfo/meteorite-list __ Meteorite-list mailing list [EMAIL PROTECTED] http://www.pairlist.net/mailman/listinfo/meteorite-list
Re: [meteorite-list] Campo del Cielo meteorites
Sorry to disappoint you, but Joel's Iron was named long before there was a NomCom. This name would indeed violate the modern Guidelines for Meteorite Nomenclature had it been found recently. There are other meteorites with similar grandfathered names, e.g.. Lutschaunig's Stone, Holland's Store, and my favorite, Slaghek's Iron. jeff At 06:27 PM 6/13/2003 -0400, David Weir wrote: Hey Mike, Don't worry too much about the name.

Re: [meteorite-list] Campo del Cielo meteorites
Mike, The Meteoritical Society is not an authority on geographic names. The NomCom does the best it can in approving names for meteorites based on geographic names, but mistakes do get made. We often have to rely on people with local knowledge of the find area (or the submitter of the meteorite to us), and they are not always fully reliable sources. Our job is to provide a label for each meteorite. We have done that. Now, the name of the meteorite is authoritative. Whether Pitino is a proper place-name remains open for discussion. Jeff At 02:48 PM 6/13/2003 -0700, you wrote: Wow, judge, juror, head of the Meteoritical Society, and God? Who died and made you the head honcho? This is my meteorite, it was legally aquired in the United States. Chaco or yourself have no claim to it. O te puedo escribir en espanol si prefieres? The meteorite is named Pitino, there is a place called Pitino, or the Meteoritical Society would not have named it that. You seem to be the same guy who harrased me two years ago about Campos. There are thousands of kilograms of them, so go dig them up or shut up.

[meteorite-list] Campo del Cielo
Greetings meteorite enthusiasts, Last Sunday I took my wife shopping to the Arizona Mills shopping mall in Chandler, AZ (this is south of Phoenix). I came across a store called Black Market Rock and Mineral, so while the wife was clothes shopping, I went in to look around. In one case they had some iron meteorites which were tagged Campo del Cielo. The smaller meteorites on the upper shelf were all shiny from some sort of lacquer coating. I thought this was a very odd way to sell irons. Maybe it looks good for tourists. The lower shelf had much larger meteorites. I was able to read the price on one which was about the size of a grapefruit. The were asking $635.00. I thought this to be a little pricey and the entire lot of meteorites, one big rip off. What does the list think? Your comments are quite welcome. Bob __ Meteorite-list mailing list [EMAIL PROTECTED] http://www.pairlist.net/mailman/listinfo/meteorite-list

Rodrigo Wrote: Having been periodic water holes almost from the day of their formation, the crater contain remainns of animals and humans that have gathered at them. We have found the fossil toe bone of a deer and the jawbone of a dog. snip Based on this info I declare that Campo killed a human and a dog when it fell. Ample evidence exists. In fact, the dog was an ancestor of an ancient ocean faring group of dogs that later settled in Nakhla Egypt. The human was the dogs owner who tried to save his dog and got whacked with the dog when the meteorite fell. The human and the dog were both hunting deer when the meteorite fell. I am sure that even Kevin couldent dispute this evidence.

I think it's fairly obvious that a rabid deer chasing a dog that was chasing a man all fell into the crater where they drowned.

if anybody is intrested,there is a place at the Tucson gem and mineralshowthat is selling campo del cielo meteorites for 17.50 a pound. its at the Tucson electric park,first tent on the left. they have a very thin crust and the metal can be seen in places. pretty good deal I thought. (or is it) there was a 70 pounder a 33 pounder and another I never weighed maybe 40 or 50 pounds good hunting, Rex P.S. I found this while researching it. We remind that according to law, all meteoritesproceeding from CAMPO DEL CIELO are consideredproperty of the Argentine republic. Consequently, itis absolutely forbidden to take them out of thecountry. The infringement of this dispositionimplies, according to international treaties in force,that Argentina has the right to confiscate any piececoming from the mentioned field, in whichever countryit may be found, for subsequent transfer to its placeof origin, reserving the right to take thecorresponding legal actions.GOBERNACION DE LA PROVINCIA DEL CHACOPODER JUDICIALDELITOS FEDERALESREPUBLICA ARGENTINA
