Re: [meteorite-list] faeton
As best I recall last I looked into this, a shungit is a deposit rich in carbon, no CV3 designation can be made. I also do not recall any fullerine content in Shungit material which would lend to supporting an extraterrestrial origin. I sell Anthraxolite from the Sudbury Astrobleme which is another carbon deposit material but it does contain fullerines and is found in a depressed area of the astrobleme suggesting the likelihood of meteoritic origin...the vaporized impactor settling and running with the ground water to areas of greater concentration (eg. deposits).

" And then in your description say it is made up of HALF carbon outside the earths origin. This would imply that it is no meteorite at all . Please tell me what is this stuff ? !! It seems to me that it must be, If Real, some kind of impact material ? It also says something about a (CV3)Shunghit Deposit , I have never heard of a meteorite fall considered a DEPOSIT . The auction # 2121347290 check it out 115 grams starting @ 9 dollars seems like the price even tells me it isn't a meteorite. Can somebody tell me what the heck this stuff really is ?

Re: [meteorite-list] faeton
I do not know for sure. I bought a piece from Ivan. I trust him. He said it was believed to be a piece of a planet ( Phaeton) that exploded or something like that. But I do not know actually.

[meteorite-list] faeton ... fantastic or foney ??????
Hi All. I'm a beginner to this list and collecting in general so forgive me if I'm missing something obvious but am I right to be very dubious about an advert such as this for faeton ? http://cgi.ebay.co.uk/ws/eBayISAPI.dll?ViewItem&item=2110753070 I've tried looking for info on this substance and I can excuse the poor English of the advert if it's genuine but it does look to me like a lump of tarmac or bitumen. Can anyone fill me in as to the true nature of this substance ?
