Never got to meet you this year in Tucson...perhaps next time or in Ensisheim?

Dear List,
i'm very glad to introduce our recently new classified meteorite,
NWA 6043. It's a very rare carbonaceous chondrite, a new CR2!!
There are not much words needed to tell how rare this kind of material is.
Now we have some slices for sale, if you are interested please take a look
AWESOME! Congratulation to Guido on a fabulous find!
Great Job!

I've searched for years in Ohio (which is a double whammy to
finding something) and would be more than pleased with a few grams.
You found one weighing in pounds! I wouldn't cut it up or part with

I must say I was impressed by the Romanesque mosaic on your summer home
basement floor, and the fact that your dad was once married to Mae West,
but this historical find is truly and amazingly impressive! Pound for

Hello List,
I have just posted some new videos of the 28FEB2010 event in Hungary. This
was a large bolide with some good videos. Hopefully some meteorites will be
recovered.

Hi Zelimir and List!
Now that I look closely (on David Weir's site), I see that the CM3

following specimens are listed as tenative CM3 :

small type, not enough illustrations, and too many typos.)
Hi Ron, all -
First off, congratulations Count.
Now to the matter at hand. I see where all the experts got together and decided
that an asteroid impact at Chicxulub killed the dinosaurs.
The first problem is that it was a COMET that hit, not an asteroid, and we have
a sample of it, which you
Hi Mike,
So, is there a C3?
The Bulletin Database has 12 (not pairing-adjusted) C3-ungrouped entries.
Most prominent should be Ningqiang, which was first a CV3, than a CK3 (some
intermediates between CVs and CKs, you have with Tanezrouft 057 and NWA
2900)
and which is now a C3-ungr.
Well and
G'Day Mike
You said So, is there a C3? Well, if I have a couple of fine
scotches, I see 3 :o} All jokes aside, well done! Keep up the good
work.
Cheers
