Re: [meteorite-list] Weston Meteorite and Benjamin Silliman Revisted: Scholarly Reviews of A professor, a president, and a meteor
Silliman was a great guy of course, - but it seems this is the perpetuation of the Jefferson misatribution and myth Unfortunately this book is grossly inaccurate and poorly sourced. Totally errs on Thomas Jefferson and paints Silliman as the man who invented meteoritics, practically ignores Howard and all the rest...

[meteorite-list] Unusual inclusion in Muonionalusta slice
Hello everyone I have been cutting irons for years and never really noticed an inclusion like this in an iron before. It is a Muonionalusta slice and reminds me of a stone meteoritethe inclusion that is. Most of the time an inclusion is a single color. like a trolite. This one seems to have inclusions in the inclusion? Maybe they are common and I just never noticed before? Insight would be appreciated.

Re: [meteorite-list] Unusual inclusion in Muonionalusta slice
Hi Mike, Now that does look unusual...never seen that before...reminds me of some lunar meteorites! Would be most interesting to get some anaysis done on that. I would have thought some one researching iron meteorite formation and differentiation would be keen to have a look at it. Let us know if you find anything exciting about it.

Re: [meteorite-list] Unusual inclusion in Muonionalusta slice
Hi Mike, that looks really unusual and interesting. But I can see no chondrules. I think there was a hole in the iron (rendered troilite - similar Mundrabilla). In this hole, then sand and sediment has been deposited. After the cutting of the iron, it looks like an inclusion. But this is only a guess.

Dear List and fellow hunters, I've been hunting with three family members and an extended family of friends the last week. After eight years of dedicated hunting a few times a year, my sister found her first meteorite! She is very excited about it, so glad she finally found one, Yea Best Regards, Greg Hupe __ Visit the Archives at http://www.meteoritecentral.com/mailing-list-archives.html Meteorite-list mailing list Meteorite-list@meteoritecentral.com http://six.pairlist.net/mailman/listinfo/meteorite-list __ Visit the Archives at http://www.meteoritecentral.com/mailing-list-archives.html Meteorite-list mailing list Meteorite-list@meteoritecentral.com http://six.pairlist.net/mailman/listinfo/meteorite-list
[meteorite-list] New Website Up and Running
Hello All, I've spent the past several months working on a website in my spare time. Unfortunately, it's not as educational as I would have liked yet because I simply haven't had the time to improve the general pages. But there's a reasonable assortment of meteorites for sale, and I did my best with the photos, some of which are pretty cool (you might check out the page for the lunar NWA 6470). I tried to include a little more information and research than is usually put into such things, and turned up some cool facts and stories about some of the specimens being offered. The URL is: www.fallsandfinds.com You'll also find some pieces of new and unusual meteorites as well as pieces of some meteorites not available anywhere else. For those of you waiting for a piece of the recent house-hitter from Poland, I was able to obtain a few grams of Soltmany fragments from a friend who literally drove all night to get to the place of the fall shortly after it occurred. I wasn't really sure what to charge for them since no one else seems to have any for sale, so I compared to a few other recent European falls of similar TKW's. I hope you enjoy the site and pictures and hope to hear from y'all; if you've got some suggestions, I'd love to hear them. I'll be uploading some collection photos soon -- the site is definitely still under construction, so please stay tuned for updates.

Re: [meteorite-list] Unusual inclusion in Muonionalusta slice
Hi Graham, yes it is open in the front all the way to the surface. So it could be tightly packed sand or soil.

Re: [meteorite-list] Unusual inclusion in Muonionalusta slice
Now I see the evidence, I have the other slices on Ebay and I can see the meteorite acted like a scoop and then in the slice where it appears to be a round inclusion, that is where I took notice of it. You can see the photos here 230692562951, 330632442737,23069255 these are Ebay items for sale so sorry if this looks like a sales gimmick. I didn't even notice the same look in these other slices until we started talking about how this might have happened.

Re: [meteorite-list] Unusual inclusion in Muonionalusta slice
Thought you might have something special there for a while Mikestill interesting to contemplate the meteorites journey though as it weathered away and was probably transported by glaciers gradually filling in the worn away inclusion.

Re: [meteorite-list] Impact Melt or Shock Melt?
AFAIK, an impact melt is created from the heat and energy of the collision itself. A contact metamorphism, in-situ. Whereas, a shock melt is created by the energy of the shock waves that travel through the rock and away from the impact site. The shock wave compression generates the heat. Reminds me of the great debate regarding Dhofar 026/461/ect. Whether it is an impact melt or not. First, it was said to be an impact melt breccia. Then others said it's actually a Shocked granulitic breccia. Then the ambiguous Crystalline melt classification. And now, the latest research puts it back as an Impact melt.. __ Visit the Archives at http://www.meteoritecentral.com/mailing-list-archives.html Meteorite-list mailing list Meteorite-list@meteoritecentral.com http://six.pairlist.net/mailman/listinfo/meteorite-list
