Re: [meteorite-list] Many Lunars added to Tucson Meteorite Auction
Hi All,
2 days ago a private collector submitted 26 lots including many
whole stones including the following categories:
Lunars (Several are half stones {world class specimens} - also some
smaller slices)
Howardite
Eucrite
Rumerutite (oriented)
C3 Ungrouped
CV3
Redrock
Bensour
El Hammami
Oum Dreyga
D'Orbigny
Etc.
This pretty much filled up the auction and any additional entries
Will be the day of - and there are always a bunch or those.
I have arranged the on-line catalog in its final lot order and this
new collection is in lots 40 through 65 (if you have been following along).
Nearly all of the lots in this group have minimums but they are
Modest to stupid low opening bids.
THIS IS THE LAST WEEK TO SUBMIT ABSENTEE BIDS
Please include full lot # (ie Lot 9 KR 1 not just Lot 9 . Please
Put METEORITE AUCTION ABSENTEE BIDS in the subject
Box of your email and expect a confirmation from me within 24hrs.
If you do not get one please email again, as I ALWAYS confirm absentee
Bids.
Whether bidding or not, this is a chance to see some spectacular
Specimens (yes, there are 12 lots of UFO material - but if that ain't
Your thing, get a grip).
Twink will be bringing both a Gold Basin and a NWA 869 cakes.
There will be plenty of affordable specimens for everyone, but this
Auction will unquestionably have the most spectacular specimens ever.
Best wishes - and see you in Tucson!
Michael

[meteorite-list] Ad: Ebay Steal Alert - North American Meteorite
For those collectors with an interest in North American meteorites, I would like to bring your attention to some eBay offerings (ending soon): Norton County (AUB) - fall - Fusion-crusted Impact-melt BRECCIA http://tinyurl.com/NortonCo Preview: http://www.ebay.com/sch/bolide*chaser/m.html?item=221358568338rt=nc_trksid=p2047675.l2562 These specimens came directly out of the University of New Mexico - Institute of Meteoritics. If Carl Agee hadn't personally handed these stones to me, I would have just tossed these scoriaceous rocks into my slag meteor-wrong collection! (A real eye-opener - lesson-learned;-) Just viewing the images of the light-colored fusion-crust will be well worth your time.

Re: [meteorite-list] How is Tucson Going??
Great weather Larry, thanks Jim, While everyone is holding their breath for the mountains of black stone to rise, from wiktionary.com: The name Tucson comes from the O'odham name for the city, Chuk Shon, meaning Spring at the base of the black mountain. Hope everyone gets a little piece of the black mountain who goes. Part of the evolution of the name was due to Spanish military settlement which Hispanicized Chuk Shon into Tucson; however unlike common TWO-san pronunciations of today, the Spanish pronounced it Tuc-SON with the accent on the second syllable. In my conversation with several Mexican academic types, they have pronounced it as Tuck-SON, but I really couldn't say if it is really how the original presidio was pronounced, or if it is just an artifact of modern difficulty of a native Mexican dealing with the CS combination which doesn't fit Castilian or Andalucian and their derivatives very well. From the stuff you never wanted to know department, but I hope better than posting a “test” message with a “no-reply” Kindest wishes Doug -Original Message- From: lebofsky lebof...@lpl.arizona.edu To: Jim Wooddell jim.woodd...@suddenlink.net Cc: meteorite-list meteorite-list@meteoritecentral.com Sent: Sat, Jan 25, 2014 8:33 am Subject: Re: [meteorite-list] How is Tucson Going??

Re: [meteorite-list] LINK
Some people need to lighten up. The Blood auction is supposed to be fun. What better place than Tucson to offer these extraterrestrial marvels? UFOology is hot right now with over a dozen series devoted to the subject on the cable TV channels. Viewers cannot get enough of it. UFO material from the 50's and 60's is among the top performing items in the collectables sector right now. A decade ago, it was dinosaurs. It doesn't matter if you believe in it or not; Some of this material has proven to be an excellent investment. Take this sketch of a flying saucer being offered up on eBay for instance: RARE RAY HARRYHAUSEN EARTH VS THE FLYING SAUCERS UFO SKETCH SIGNED ART AUTOGRAPH http://r.ebay.com/qwUlkI A mere $21,000.0 and it could be yours. It looks like there have been 5 offers on it. I think the witness sketch in the Blood auction is way more exciting and there is no minimum bid. Then there is Lot 37 which attracted the attention of the scientific community. It is made of 100% pure Enstatite aligned in sharp microscopic shards which could not occur naturally. It even looks oriented. It is informally referred to as the Puckerite for obvious reasons. It doesn't get more alien looking than this! You can cut and paste this link into a browser if you want to know more about Enstatite http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Enstatite Do not forget there is a specimen labeled as the Tucson meteorite in this collection of artifacts! Tucson, with all of it wackiness and oddities, is the perfect place for this kind offering.

Re: [meteorite-list] LINK
One finds those odd black lumps in the desert with some regularity (lot 37). I always assumed they were heavily weathered globs of tar from telephone poles, baked into odd shapes by the sun. Typically not quite as hard as rock when pressure is applied, chip conchoidally revealing a glassy black texture. Low density. Higher concentration closer to roads... Nice piece of chalcedony (lot 34) being offered as a UFO token as well. Won't say the stuff isn't cool or something like that, but with a close examination, I don't know how may of these things are U or F. Definitely Os, though. How much is a pyrite nodule worth if it's supposedly from a UFO (lot 35)? Does that count as some sort of 'provenance?'

Re: [meteorite-list] C3 Typo Corrected
Actually, there is no such thing as CV3-ung. If it's CV, it's grouped. The MetBull lists this as CV3-anomalous, and from the two abstracts I can find on it, I'm not entirely convinced it's anomalous, but maybe. It's at the high end of the CV oxygen isotope trend and closely resembles Leoville.

Re: [meteorite-list] LINK
Hi list, I'm sure Michael will be grateful for any advice we can give him in regard to his auction. As Adam wrote, it's supposed to be fun and UFO collectibles are part of it. Nobody has to bid on them, so I don't know what the fuss is all about. Anne is correct, unlike stamps printing errors are not desired by book collectors. I guess Michael's book - which I've bought - hasn't turned out to be a bestseller so he tries to add some rarity to them. It's called 'Marketing' and it can backfire if it's not done correctly. But again, nobody has to bid on them if they don't like the book. I wish someone might be willing and able to establish a video link of the auction to the rest of the world.

[meteorite-list] NWA 8173 - A rare Enstatite Achondrite
Aloha meteorite lovers, The Big Kahuna has acquired an interesting new achondrite, NWA 8173. A single fusion crusted 67.17g stone was purchased from a Moroccan dealer in autumn 2013. The meteorite was cut by Montana Meteorite Laboratory and a sample submitted to Tony Irving for analysis toward classification. This is a very unusual specimen composed mainly of stubby, prismatic grains of untwinned, pure enstatite (Fs0.0±0.0Wo0.2-0.3) with ~20 vol.% stained, holly-leaf shaped grains of Si-bearing Fe-Ni metal, and accessory alabandite, daubreelite, alkali feldspar, silica polymorph and minor secondary calcite. This specimen is not an aubrite, and the purity of the enstatite is remarkable (even among other known enstatite-rich meteorites). There are only five enstatite achondrite meteorites classified and listed in the Meteorite Bulletin, and this is one of the freshest examples. Slices of this meteorite have a mirror polish and come in a quality labeled large display box for protection and years of viewing pleasure. Scale cube is 1cm on each side and not included in the sale. http://bigkahuna-meteorites.com/NWA8173.html Gary Fujihara Big Kahuna Meteorites Inc.

Re: [meteorite-list] LINK other info
Hi All,
Thanks to Jeff Grossman re the CV3-anomalous - that error has
Now been corrected
I have always intended to have the 48LB Canyon Diablo tested
By Blaine Reed prior to the auction - it is from a private collector who's
Sophistication about meteorites I doubt.
Thanks to Anne Black for her civil comments ... Sources are as
follows:
MB = Mike Bandli
MB (2) = Me
KR = Kathrine Rambo
TM = Twink Monrad
FO = Fred Olson
ETw = Eric Twelker
GH = Greg Hupe
AH = Adam Hupe
JH = John Humphries
MH is a Private Collector and all MH Lots {40-65} were purchased from
Edwin Thompson, so, provenance on these lots is impeccable - feel free to
talk to ET, yourself if you still hold any doubts. ET has been
around longer than all but 2 or 3 of us. I have never heard anyone
Claim he misrepresented any material)
YW = another private collector - if anyone is doubting any of his material
email me and I will foreword it to him I am sure he will provide
you with information that will reassure you.
All the UFO lots are from Adam Hupe who contacted me re the
possibility of entry in the auction. Adam has, over the years entered
Hundreds of specimens in the auction - many of which sold for well
Under his standard pricing, providing a real service to the bidders. He
Has spent hundreds if not thousands of hours in service to the meteorite
Community. Those not interested in these lots can take the ten minutes
They will require to get a drink or smoke a fatty or whatever it takes to
mellow.
Looking foreword to seeing ya in Tucson!
Michael
