Congrats on those wonderful finds Ruben. That 'achondrite' looking stone has
stumped me a little.
The first thing I thought of before a close look at the pics was a
Mesosiderite which explains a number of the features present. But the thing
that really threw me was the chondrules. Maybe it's

Congrats on the find! That's got to have been quite a rush. Can't wait to see
what the final classification turns out to be. Good luck.
Best wishes,

Hi Bernd Ruben,
The problem with a Ureilite is that I believe metallic iron/nickel is in
relatively small amounts in them. It usually forms small veinlets around the
grains and are the first thing to weather away (low nickel content) and
often lost in slicing too. Because of this only VERY
I guess the riddle to ask is When does a pallasite have chondrules?
You may jest Rob but I've seen it. ;-)
Not a Pallasite with chondrules as such but pieces of extremely weathered
Huckitta. It almost looks like a weathered (W5) type 3 or 4 impact melt.
They look a bit like chondrules... but

Hi all,
perhaps someone has vol. 2 (5/1967) of Earth and Planetary Science Letters in
their library? Page 197 should have an article by P. Ramdohr titled Die
Schmelzkruste der Meteoriten.
I know there are other more recent papers on the subject, I need this particular
article however. Your help
Hi Ruben, Rob and List,
I would like to congratulate Ruben on his new find. There is no doubt
that this will be one of the top finds for 2009! Here is my 2 cents
worth on what type meteorite this may be. I had a chance to look at the
exterior and polished face. My first impression of the cut
Wow, thanks Paul, Sonny, Rob and everyone else for all the interest on
my meteorite.
I think Sonny is right it is by no means ordinary and will be a cool
find watever it is.

I'm going to throw my hat in the ring with Graham and say mesosiderite. The

reminds me of a similar feature in the part slice of Estherville I got some
time ago from Anne B.
Best!

Good fun! although I had help; the photo of El Hammami was labeled ;) I got 88

hi all
i have add the term POSSIBLE by respect to the imca,because i was asked by the
directors of the imca to do so;

so its not a wishful thinking or unknown material,and
