Hi Mike, Thanks for posting the Met-Bulletin update! The most exciting meteorite on that list must be Choteau - and not just because of it's beauty. As the bulletin explains, Choteau is as ultra-rare as pallasites get, and has few rivals. View photos of this meteorite here:

Re: [meteorite-list] Choteau - A NEW Ungrouped Pallasite Meteorite

Great find! It looks like a more-beautiful version of Udei Station, but with olivines instead of blackened silicates. The good ole' USA may not have a lunar yet, but we certainly have some gorgeous pallasites. :) Best regards, MikeG --

Hi Mike, Yup, they're beautiful! There is only six ungrouped pallasites and half are in the USA! Choteau (8.47 kg TKW) is in the same league as Milton (2.04 kg TKW) and Vermillion (34.36 kg TKW). The other three (NWA 1911, Yamato 8451, Zinder) have a combined TKW of only about 150 grams!

Hi list members, We are selling the last piece of D'Orbigny. We have a 636 gram specimen but it is already dedicated to a deal that is pending. That leaves just this one beautiful 40 gram specimen remaining. This is the piece that I would like to keep for my own but bills and taxes come first.
