Re: [meteorite-list] New Fall

Ooops, maybe not. Now that I read the article more closely it says... "Questions also remain over where the incident occurred. It was initially reported that it happened just after the Auckland-bound aircraft entered New Zealand airspace. But Lan Chile said yesterday the flaming object was seen

Re: [meteorite-list] New Fall

I was going to guess Chile as well. Maybe somewhere between Santiago and New Zealand. http://www.nzherald.co.nz/section/1/story.cfm?c_id=1&objectid=10431624 Phil >>From Texas: Down there? Vineyard? ---> Chile? > > - Original Message - > From: "mccartney" <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> > To: >

Re: [meteorite-list] Mysterious Circular Structure Near Chemult, Oregon

Looks like something fun to check out either way. I've been meaning to get over and explore that general area. Of course it would have to be pretty obvious for me to notice anything :-) By the way, I have heard a theory that there was a large strike at some point in central Oregon causing a "hot

[meteorite-list] Primitive Aubrite->EL6/7->EL3

Please forgive me for not referencing actual NWA numbers but... After scanning some material, my take is that at various times this material has been proposed to be (if not actually classified as) a primitive aubrite, then an EL6/7 and then after some sparsely distributed chondrules were found, ev

Re: [meteorite-list] Nice cut meteorite pic

Hello Roman and List, I too have wondered about very small chondrules in an ordinary chondrite. I believe some classes such as CO are known for this but are there any ordinary chondrites that are known particularly for their small chondrule size? Jeff posted some pics for me a while back at: http

[meteorite-list] My "find"

Hello everyone, Since the list is so quiet, thougth I'd share about my only "find" (so far). It found it in the garage under some dirt and caliche. I was taking a little vicarious tour of the NWA by cutting up some fragments. The last (and ugliest) has some great chondrules. Jeff Kuyken of met

Re: [meteorite-list] Re: 2 grams of Shergotty

The Shergotty? I've still got it ;-) There was no chance of it getting lost or anything. I thought it was a pretty elegant solution to everyone's problem. Actually Matteo does make somewhat of a point. Dealers of some collectibles (particularly those that can't be manufactured) can influence t

Matteo and Gregory, I have a deal for you both. How about something like this: Matteo, you wire me $2000 (I'll just hold the piece since it will be going to Gregory anyway) Gregory will then wire you $2000 (again, no shipping charge necessary) Gregory, I will send you $1000 (see no shipping once
