Re: [meteorite-list] Prospectors, Scientists Vie for Rocks More Precious Than Gold (Meteorites)
http://www.boston.com/news/globe/health_science/articles/2006/02/27/prospectors_scientists_vie_for_rocks_more_precious_than_gold/ In 1995, Killgore gave up his job as a plumber to become a meteorite prospector. He now has one of the world's premier private collections, including one lunar specimen valued at $8 million that he located with the help of Bedouin nomads. NWA 773, which I guess he's discussing with the journalist here, has a TKW of 633 g; at $8 million value, this comes to $12,638/g. The same type of lunar gabbro material can be purchased for a few hundred per gram today.

AW: [meteorite-list] Prospectors, Scientists Vie for Rocks More Precious Than Gold (Meteorites)
Hi Ron, The solution was (and still is) evident. A single space shuttle start costs 400-500 million $. With only 1 or 2 percent of that sum, the institutions could have bought easily all meteorites from Morocco, which appeared during the last 5 years completely. (+ hiring Da Boyz Stefan, Martin, Andi to be the agents). If the meteoricists weren't able to point out to the budgetary accounting institutions, that the scientifical benefit of acquiring all those stones is much higher or even equivalent to one of the 114 space shuttle missions, but that it can be achieved at only a hundredth of the costs, then I think that they are not in the position to run down private persons, because they possess meteorites or that they purchase meteorites. I could imagine, that there might be some legal obstacles, which could afford a cooperation with the Sahara states, which might be politically undesirable with the hysteria at present, but that it would be all about the money is implausible. I'm googling around but can't find anywhere the annual budget of ANSMET ? Only sporadically some figures. In 2003 the expedition's costs for a 6 week hunting period of a single person is given with $ 120,000. Hence 6 weeks on ice of a single team costs 0.7 Mio$. (for that sum our Dean Bessey would deliver 15 metric tons of chondrites right to the door, wouldn't you Dean?). So it's not about the money. Buckleboo!

Some were falsely claiming Fukang as being a new type of ungrouped Pallasite.

One question though: Item #5: It would also appear that no one tried breaking a specimen of each, as the fracture morphology of each differs. In what way? I've never tried breaking specimens, but I've seen plently of broken ones and have never noticed a difference. As amorphous glass, both obsidian and tektites have a nice conchoidal fracture. However, now that you bring it to my attention, I can imagine a theoretical difference: since most obsidian does have tiny crystallites, and tektites have absolutely none, tektites should have a smoother fracture surface, relatively free of stair-steps. I'll have to go check as soon as I get this written. As an interesting aside, various obsidians were esteemed for varied uses in the stone age. Varieties packed with incipient crystals flaked more crudely than more pure glasses, but because the tiny crystals obstructed the growth of fractures, tools made of such impure material were tougher. Better coarse, heavy duty implements could be made of this. More pure glasses made for perfectly flaked extra sharp arrowheads, but they were essentially one-use items as they broke very easily (there being no crystallites to interfere with fracture growth). Is this the sort of difference in fracture morphology to which you refer? Thanks, Norm http://tektitesource.com --- Sterling K.

The Terrestrial Volcanic Origin of Tektites: Mayer, in 1788, published the first scientific tektite theory; he called moldavites glassy lavas. Charles Darwin, in 1844 (The Voyage of the H.M.S. Beagle), first described australite buttons and identified them as obsidian. He wondered a great deal about their unique shape, but became distracted by some issue or other in biology, so the world lost a great tektite theorist. The volcanic theory became as predominant in the 19th Century as the Impact Theory is today. It was endorsed by Wickman, 1893; van Dijk, 1879; W. D. Campbell, 1906; La Conte, 1902; and Moore, 1916 (who said tektites were identical to Pele's Tears); Simpson , 1902, proposed Australite tektites came from Krakatoa. Dunn, 1908 and 1912, proposed a complicated formation of tektites inside of gas bubbles in fresh lava, a suggestion further developed and complicated by Buddhue in 1940, while Dunn then later (1935) suggested tektites were formed by rain and snow falling on molten lava. The volcanic theories all died when geochemical analysis advances in the 20th Century, as tektites have a composition that is quite different from any terrestrial volcanic rock, and tektites are easily distinguishable from obsidian. It should be pointed out, in defense of Darwin and all the early geologists, that just from the standpoint of holding a tektite and obsidian in your hand and looking at them, they appear to be materially identical. Chemical and physical analysis is required to distinguish them. It would also appear that no one tried breaking a specimen of each, as the fracture morphology of each differs. However, the last Terrestrial Volcanic Theory was proposed in 1976! It is: 6. The Cryptovolcanic Origin of Tektites: McCall, 1976: To understand this at all, we need to dig into the strange tribal relationships of science. British geologists (we invented geology, you know) were firmly wedded (possibly even welded) to the volcanic origin of craters, all craters, of all kinds, on all worlds. An immense amount of energy and thought had been invested in lunar volcanic theory in particular, up through the 1950's. Those who learned their geology at British institutions (Australians, New Zedders, and so forth) were trained in this tradition. The notion of that some craters on the Earth or elsewhere might have been formed by heavy objects falling out of the sky was regarded as a crackpot theory put forward entirely by brash and uninformed colonials of the American variety who were well-known to be fond of whizz-bangs (child-like, you know), and the impact theory was resolutely

Re: [meteorite-list] February Issue of Meteorite Magazine
Thanks, Larry. I'm looking forward to receiving it. All the best, Fred - Original Message - From: Larry Lebofsky [EMAIL PROTECTED] To: Notkin [EMAIL PROTECTED] Cc: Meteorite List meteorite-list@meteoritecentral.com Sent: Tuesday, February 28, 2006 9:42 PM Subject: [meteorite-list] February Issue of Meteorite Magazine Geoff and all: Please remind me not to go away from my computer for a few hours again (had some meetings to go to)! Geoff, thanks for responding. Nancy and I finished the proofing of Meteorite about two weeks, so the magazine is now in the capable hands of the publishers Hazel and Derek Sears. The magazine is at the printers and should be mailed out soon (I cannot give you a firm date, but please be patient as this is our first issue). As Geoff also said, existing subscriptions will be honored for the coming year. If you still have concerns, please contact Hazel Sears directly at: [EMAIL PROTECTED] Also, as Geoff said, we are already working on the next issue of Meteorite which should be out in May and we hope back on schedule. A few people still owe us articles -- you know who you are :o) Let me take this opportunity to thank all of the people (and there are many) who have helped us keep Meteorite magazine going. Editing a magazine is new experience for us and we could not have done it without the support of many of you out there. Thanks to all of you who have made this an enjoyable experience. I hope you all enjoy Meteorite when you get our first issue and I hope to hear from many of you as Nancy and I look for articles for future issues.

Re: [meteorite-list] Meteorite Magazine- New Issue?
I had a similar experience to that which Ron describes below. Last summer, I renewed for two years...just in time to find out that the magazine was going away. I was pleased to find out that it would continue to be published and figured that I had two year's worth of reading ahead of me. Until, that is, I received the letter stating that I had received a refund (I hadn't) and needed to pay for 2006. I sent off an e-mail just after Christmas pointing out the error. I'm not the most patient guy in the world, so when I hadn't received a reply to my e-mail, I phoned and spoke to a young lady (I have forgotten her name) but she said that Hazel Sears would be back in touch. Some time later, I did receive an e-mail reply from Hazel stating that they would credit my subscription for 2006 and half of 2007. I probably lost an issue or two in the confusion...but something is better than nothing. Of course, I haven't seen an issue yet Dennis -Original Message- From: Ron Baalke [EMAIL PROTECTED] Sent: Feb 28, 2006 11:44 AM To: Meteorite Mailing List meteorite-list@meteoritecentral.com Subject: Re: [meteorite-list] Meteorite Magazine- New Issue? The last I heard from them, they sent me a letter in December that said the Schiffs had refunded my subscription, and my renewal for 2006 was now due. I have never received a refund from the Schiffs. I then checked my records and noted I had renewed last August. I've forwarded this information to [EMAIL PROTECTED] That was 2 months ago, and I haven't heard anything back from them since. What has been other people's experience on this?
