I hate to bring up Al-Haggounia again, for fear of starting the
aubrite-enstatite issue again. But, I have a question about Al-Hagg
that is unrelated to it's problematic classification.
Has the terrestrial age of Al-Hagg ever been firmly established? And
if so, how long has it been here on Earth
Hi List,
This is a curiosity-based question. I know many list members have
outstanding and enviable collections. The Hupes, Farmer, Cottingham,
Strope, and Kilgore come to mind as dealers/collectors who have insane
collections of meteorites that most collectors would drool over. Main

Thanks Phil. That is exactly what I was looking for. I had misplaced
the link to that article. I bookmarked it again. :)
So this horrible-looking meteorite has been laying around for about
20,000 years, give or take.
Best regards,
MikeG

Hi Mike and All,
Mike quoted, "So this horrible-looking meteorite has been laying around for

I wouldn't call it, "horrible-looking", well at least not the 'blue' part of
the meteorite! In fact, it is pretty fun to cruise the surface under a
microscope! :)

Hi Mike,
Cut and polished slices are fun to hunt for those rare chondrules
among the swirls of oxidized minerals. I'm a fan of Al-Haggounia.

Hi Bob and List,
I sounded overly harsh against Al-Hagg. I used to have a nice slice
that had a big white chondrule and weathering veins that actually
looked pretty decent. It had visual interest and also had a
patch/zone of the bluish material.
Considering the bargain price of most Al-Hagg, it

Hi Mike and all,
There are speck collections, micro collections, macro collections, and

specimens as large as 20kg range and small as 1/4 gram.
Someone could have a speck collection totaling 400 to 800. It would be

Hello list,
I don't even know how to beguin this.
Sometime between 1967 and 1972 while at an
Air Force radar site, there was a complete
Solar eclipse that happened at the
Kotzebue AFB on the coast of Alaska.
I vividly remember the teminator raceing

Pete, List,
To find any eclipse in your lifetime, just go to
this list of all the eclipses of the twentieth century:

Steve, Pete,
Kotzebue was on the very edge of the eclipse
track. It wouldn't have bee noticeable from
there. The pathe of totality never got closer
to Kotzebue than Florida.
