[meteorite-list] Trade: Portales Valley slice

2015-07-18 Thread Jason Phillips via Meteorite-list
Hello List,
I am offering up for trade a beautiful Portales Valley, New Mexico
slice.  This meteorite fell to earth on June 13, 1998 and gave us a
glimpse into the true beauty that lies in the stars above us.  In my
opinion Portales Valley, metal rich slices, are the most beautiful
meteorites I have ever seen, and this slice is no exception.

Information about this slice:
Dimensions are: 146mm x 89mm x 5mm
Weight: 175 grams
Coordinates will be provided as well as the finders name.
This specimen was cut at the University of Arizona on their wire saw.
This particular specimen is the high metal variation and has an
abundance of metal throughout.
The stability of this specimen is perfect.

If you have any questions please feel free to contact me.

Take Care,

Hillary Clinton sounds the alarm on meteorites


Hillary Clinton on Thursday called attention to a dire security threat:
meteorites.

Speaking before a town hall in New Hampshire, the Democratic
front-runner said experts should be mapping meteorites and asteroids
“on a security basis,” noting the importance of scientific research
and development in stimulating the U.S. economy.

“You know, back in the early ’90s, our country invested in mapping
the human genome, and my husband was president when it finally was
revealed. Money had been put in by both Republican and Democratic
presidents and Congresses because we wanted to know more about what this
meant. And in the years since, hundreds and thousands of jobs have been
created and many millions of dollars have been generated for our
economy,” Clinton said.

“I think we’re just at the beginning of trying to understand what is
a black hole? Why is it there? What is in it? What does it mean for us?
We should, on a security basis, be mapping the meteorites and the
meteors and all the other things that people — asteroids — that
people worry about,” she added.
