Hi Dave and list
Although I have no experience at repairing meteorites, I do know what
some people do for opals that break. They use opticon 2 part epoxy. Its
water clear and supposed to not (or be very good at resisting) yellowing.
My suggestion then would be to mix up a small batch of epoxy and
Hello List, Juvinas seems to be a meteorite that is hard to find info on. Is there any one out there who knows alot about this Eucrite that would be willing to share their knowledge with me and maybe even other interested list members? Thanks, Tom

Hi Dave,
I've used one of the several varieties of Superglue to repair two slices
that have broken. Just apply sparingly so none drips over the edges
and you'll be OK.

I'd just like to point out that super glues aregetters, they attract
water at the molecular level and could cause some detereoration to a
meteorite over time, how much and how noticable it would be I can't say,
possibly very small, but from working with pacemakers, I do know that

I'm completely surprise no one has seen this before. I'm not surprise that

One thing I left out on the last (long message) is a thin section is also a good way
to go. (disclaimer: I sell thin sections and in no way am I promoting this here. There
are other good sources for these but they offer a good choice with good surface area
over very small costly

That's a great write-up about that subject Al. I can't recall either if that
particular subject has been broached. Invariably, when collecting, one might
also consider having a traveling collection put together as well. Small

Hi Bob and list
My understanding of epoxies is that they aren't hygroscopic as all of the
superglues are (can't for the life of me remember the technical name for
the stuff..something like cyanoacrilic adhesives or some such). I do know
that they will dis-color given a moisture mobile stain such
