[meteorite-list] Franconia Iron Impact Crater Pic's

2005-05-21 Thread thetoprok 



Hello List,

Good morning, I just finished uploading some cool pictures to my 
webshots page. The Franconia irons, (most likely metal fragments from 
the H chondrite,) occasionally have impact craters on them. I have 
photographed them at 40X and 100X. There are pictures of a perfectly 
oriented BB with craters, views of micro flow lines, and 'crater 
fields' in miniature!

See the last photo album on this page;

Have a Meteoritic Day,
Larry

Hello Bill, List,

That is an excellent example of how these irons came to be. I've seen 
some individuals with big flat squares of iron sticking out. One of the 
stones I have is similar to the one you have but not as dramatic, the 
metal is not peeling off, it's flat on the broken surface and is about 
1/4 inch x 1/8 inch and very thin.


Regards,
Larry

Hello Larry and List, 
 
I also have quite a few irons from Franconia that show what appear to 
be impact craters in them. 

 
Here is a slice of the Franconia H5 actually showing one on the 
controversial irons that was in the process of separating from it's 
chondrite parent. Or at least this is how it looks to an amateur ;) At 
any rate these are very interesting photos...

Hi Larry, Bill and list,  I have a 12.5 g slice with a Franconia iron on the
side. It is about a 1/4 in. long.  Hey, if there is anyone interested in
buying it, maybe I will have another hupe sale, let me know.
   Here are some pics, I have not did any sanding on the slice yet.
