Sorry Adam,
I got mixed up with all that talk of 1000 NWA and only one
melt, etc.

Adam, Michael and especially Matt,
I received a part slice of Spade from Matt today and I have to say that it is
an extraordinary meteorite. In my collection I have nice slices of melts that
include Chico(L6), Sahara 98362(H6), Dhofar 010(H6), Gao?(H5? from Eric
Olsen), and a nice small cut up

Hi Michael and List,
I was not questioning Matt's integrity at all. Both meteorites were found
in Texas less than 35 miles apart and are very similar in appearance. Since
finely metal-grained H6s with dark matrixes and low shock are rare I feel a
pairing must be considered. In any case both Spa
Bernd's observations and opinion are good enough for this cowboy.
Also, isn't Matt's meteorite a US find? Matt's integrity is beyond
question in my book.

Dear List Members,

Another possible inconsistency:
My Estacado thin section measures 2.3 x 1.6 cm (3.68 cm^2)
and I found at least 7 relict POP chondrules and 1 relict, barred
chondrule.
This would also be in clear contrast to A.E. Rubin's statement:

I just studied my Estacado thin section (that I purchased from
AL Mitterling in 1999) under crossed polars and compared
the extinction behavior of its olivine crystals to the description

IF they are really paired, this would imply that several stones may have fallen.
The Estacado main mass weighs 290 kg, the Spade single mass weighs
8.
Dear List,
Public lynching, firing squad, torture or disembowelment would be in
order for this type of crime. The problem is that this person will be
rewarded for his misdeeds by getting lifetime employment at some secret
facility.

Hi all,
I've been wondering if after all the experienced hunters that have been
through this area, any meteoric material unrelated to the March fall has been
found. In my limited study I see that this occurs once in a while. How likely
are instances like this in similar parts of the U.S.? Areas
Hi Adam:
I suggest you pick up a piece of Spade and have a thin section made. Maybe
you are correct. But as we all know, the look of the cut face can be quite
deceiving vs. the thin section and chemical composition. Furthermore
Estacado is 35 mi away and is an S1, not S2-S3 like Spade. I suspect th
Hi All,
Interesting observation about Spade and Estacado.

Adam and Greg,
The picture (below) on Martin's site does support the similar appearance. If
so, then Estacado is a special meteorite also...based on Dr. Rubin's analysis
of Spade. Also, 35 miles does seem like a big strewn field but certainly not
a stretch (to me) to be the same material. A pai
Mark,
I totally agree with your thinking on this. I did not intend anyone to think
otherwise. My comment last night was only trying to put some kind of spin on
what could be the thought process when someone uses chondrites and
sedimentary rocks in the same reference. So, I too agree that they a
I would guess if the two are only 35 miles apart that they are the same

It would have to be a very large strewn field considering the fact that Spade is

Dear List Members,
I find the resemblance between Spade and Estacado remarkably
indistinguishable. They are both from Texas and are both H6s. Has anybody
checked for a pairing?
All the best,

Hi List
I just have to comment on this. Sedimentary rock, in any definition found in
geology and petrology books is matter which is laid down by either wind or
water, then compacted over time into a durable rock. This is not how
chondrules formed. Chondrules most likely are a coalescing of minute
