I believe I did not describe properly what I was trying to say. The video link
I sent clearly showed co2 gas being poured from a beaker. During the cold mars
night a thin layer of co2 frost can form on a hillside. when daylight returns

I'm pretty sure the piece sold as Estherville is not a meteorite as well. It
certainly does not match up with my other Estherville pieces.
I would like to know where this material originated. The labels are fake, and I
am highly disappointed that this stuff has entered the market.

Hi Mike, all,
As an Aussie, I can say with 100% absolute certainty that this isn't
Murchison. It's not even close. In fact, I'm actually wondering it's a
meteorite at all as it looks more like some type of porphyritic rock. The
only meteorite I have seen that looks even remotely like this would be
Since you asked: "anyone reading this, feel free to speak up and tell
us how this "Murchison"
looks compared to real Murchison."
Here is a picture of Murchison for comparison:

And is a picture of the crust of Murchison:

Martin,
I am sorry but this IS NOT Murchison, and the Estherville IS NOT Estherville.
I emailed you regarding the Murchison and the fact that the photos clearly show
an NWA type old carbonaceous chondrite only minutes after you posted to the
list, and got no response.
Anyone who has ever laid
Hi Larry, that's exactly the word I was trying to look
for..."sublimates"...just could not bring it to mind. (any was being
too lazy to look it up) So my thoughts were rightvery unlikely
for there ever to be any liquid CO2 on Mars.

Hi Martin and List,
3000 yen for the 8-piece set. That's about $30 US at the current exchange rate.
Looks yummy. :)

Hi Listees and Collectors,
This week I have a big new batch of material to announce. This
includes some very nice Chelyabinsk stones and rarely-seen window
glass shattered by the shockwave! I also have dozens of new NWA
specimens, including endcuts, slices, and micromounts.
As always, use coupo
Wonderful indeed! After atmosphere passage we'll have at least a cup of hot
chocolate. Flow, lines! Cheers!

Hi Graham and Steve:
Technically, you are wrong--CO2 sublimates (turns from solid to gas) and
does not evaporate (turns from liquid to gas). The triple point (where
solid, liquid, and gas exist)of CO2 is 5.1 atmospheres. Since the "sea
level" pressure on Mars is about 0.006 atmospheres, the atmosp
Hi Steve,
Liquid CO2 cannot exsist as a liquid at atmospheric pressure. It must
be pressurized above 60.4 psi to remain as a liquidso would it
have ever flowed on Mars at all? Solid CO2 evaporates to gas on Earth
and I would say it does the same on Marssomebody correct me there
if I am wro
I should add several billion years of carbon dioxide flow could cause a lot of
erosion.

What is the composition of the pebbles? and other deposits? if there are not
carbonates or other water soluable constiuentes then we may have to accept the
flow of carbon dioxide as the cause of the water like erosion caused by the
heating and cooling on mars. where is the bog iron and limeston
