Re: [meteorite-list] Ash Creek the most expensive ordinary chondrite??

Hi Melanie, About a year back there was someone selling other meteorites as historic ones. Don't know if they were NWA or not. I do know there were several meteorites that had very questionable providence. When sources of the material were asked if trades with this individual were made (where

Re: [meteorite-list] Ancient Atomic Bombs

Hi all - Its Amazing what technologies the ancient Lemurians and Rama Empire had {JOKE!!!). If anyone wants the inside story of how this lunacy came into popular culture, simply drop me an e-mail. The worrisome part of this, though, seriously, is that an impactor probably hit near Mohenjo

Re: [meteorite-list] Ash Creek the most expensive or dinary chondrite?‏

Hi Greg and all, While I think there are a lot of good points on why this meteorite was expensive, I think there is another factor in all this as well. The more people, meteorite hunters, collectors and so on that descend on a fall, the more expenses that have to be added into the cost. If you

Re: [meteorite-list] Ash Creek the most expensive ordinary chondrite?‏

I would just add to all of your very good points, Provenance. Nobody is mightier than Bob Haag. So, if he is selling it or it has anything to do with him people will pay a premium. He is our Rock Star Of the industry. Well he is the Led Leppelin whereas the meteorite men are more of the Black

Re: [meteorite-list] Ash Creek vs. Buzzard Coulee

I feel that Greg S. and everyone answered the specifics of why Ash Creek is more expensive than Buzzard Coulee very well. We got several reports each day from the field on the search for Ash Creek-West, many more reports than on Buzzard Coulee. Also, Ash Creek was more accessible than Buzzard

Yo, Well, I don't fully agree that Al's suggestion is the reason why West was so expensive, but it may well have been a factor. Greg, you said: Look at it this way (its how I do anyway) Compare Carancas... It sold for $100 per gram and they had to travel from the USA to Peru. West... it also
