[meteorite-list] WI Meteorite Name?
Hello Listers, Here is my guess from the Livingston WI meteorite fall. I would say it might be a H4 breccia meteorite. What I have noticed from the samples is that there are two distinctive colors from the matrix within the meteorite. On one side the matrix is a medium gray and on the other side the matrix is a light tan to almost off white color depending on the lighting conditions. Lets talk about the dark matrix side first. What I noticed is that the chondrules on this side seem to be more defined and prevalent through out the matrix. The visibility of the iron through the matrix seem uniform in a equilibrated state. When I ran a magnet on that side, the pull seemed good but not as strong as I would like if it would be with a H classification meteorite, but I think that the gray matrix seems to be less included with iron as opposed to the light tan colored matrix. What I noticed with the light tan matrix is that the chondrules are less visible due to the color of the matrix, but I did notice that there were dark colored chondrules through out the matrix. Also what I noticed about the light tan side is that the iron to chondrule ratio seemed to be higher on the iron side. However, the iron displacement through out the matrix seemed to be less equilibrated compared to the gray matrix side where it was more uniformed throughout the matrix but the iron was more abundent. This can be further seen at this link from my flicker account http://www.flickr.com/photos/48262...@n03/4594050372/ At close inspection of the meteorite in the lower left part of the meteorite is a big iron chunk and when I took a magnet to that side I got a very strong pull to it, which felt somewhat like an iron meteorite would feel like. It seems to me from doing these elementary observations and experiments that the light tan side seems to have more iron then the gray side which could suggest that this meteorite is definitely a brecciated meteorite. I wonder if this meteorite could be classified as a H/L 4 breccia meteorite?

It is a beautiful breccia, but we're still curious as to class. L6 is very different than H5, and this meteorite "sticks" to a magnet like an H. There are people who are eager to see if they guess right. The fact that this meteorite is so gorgeously brecciated is wonderfully more exciting than an "ordinary" chondrite if you get my meaning.

Re: [meteorite-list] WI Meteorite Name?
Yes, the NomCom has final say but I believe they do listen to what is spread on this list and elsewhere as well as to what the original finders have to say. If it falls in there guidelines (whatever those are) then suggestions spread around may influence what the stone is called. Pretty sure Buzzard Coulee's name was influenced by the finders and by this list. Cheers! tett Jeff Kuyken wrote: Exactly.

Re: [meteorite-list] WI Meteorite Name?
Al, I was told that Ash Creek was named by Mexico Doug. He recovered the first specimen at that site and sent it to Dr. Rubin with that as the name. Nomenclature just approved the name. I have also heard that most people preferred West. But nobody asked. Is this not true?

Greetings, It will be called what the Nomenclature Committee decides to name it as naming has always been done in the past. Dr. Jeff Grossman made mention the name Livingston would probably not be used due to conflict with other named specimens.

[meteorite-list] WI Meteorite Name?
Hello All, After nearly three weeks in the WI strewnfield and talking with many of the locals, I think it would be a great idea to have a local vote as to what the residents of the strewnfield think "THEY" would like 'Their' meteorite named.

Re: [meteorite-list] WI Meteorite Name?
It was ground zero for meteorite hunters, but man of the pieces have been found closer to cobb and mifflin. Hope its called mifflin or maybe "Mifflingston Point". Im guessing its gonna b mifflin.
