Re: [meteorite-list] RE: NWA 869
Dear Jeff; Get to a rock and mineral (meteorite) show near you THIS summer, and ask permission to, and handle a few kilo's of 869, and you will get the idea. After some visual and hands on, they are distinct as the sound of a 396 Chevelle, or a Cessna, or that comfortable feel of the key in the door when you arrive home from a long trip! 869's are way under priced in today's market!

Re: [meteorite-list] RE: NWA 869
Dave list - handle a few kilo's of 869, and you will get the idea. It just seems that if you want to get 'NWA 869' out of the garbage can and into the Met. Bulletin, *somebody* has to articulate what makes one slightly weathered, brecciated L4-6 'NWA 869', and another one not - since it's sold by every meteorite middleman out there (and half the time as 'unclassified'), it'd be interesting to see how everyone's lists of features match up, too, don't you think? The main thing specifically mentioned on 869 sale pages is occasional 'dark inclusions' - surely there are other diagnostic features? Several websites claim it is 'paired with' or 'sold as' NWA 787, NWA 900 - and other numbers - how many others? Which ones? This list might be the best place to gather that information, or determine that what everyone has been calling NWA 869 is actually NWA something else, already classified with an erroneous TKW. Or is that a can of chondrules not to be opened? Jeff __ Meteorite-list mailing list Meteorite-list@meteoritecentral.com http://six.pairlist.net/mailman/listinfo/meteorite-list
Re: [meteorite-list] RE: NWA 869
Do many of you have oriented pieces of 869? I know some falls for some reason produce more oriented pieces than others. I have three 869s with orientation features-- two with flow lines and one without flow lines but with frothing on the flattened side and along the edge with the rounded side. __ Meteorite-list mailing list Meteorite-list@meteoritecentral.com http://six.pairlist.net/mailman/listinfo/meteorite-list

RE: [meteorite-list] RE: NWA 869
Dear Christian, I thoroughly enjoyed looking at your endcut and your slice - wonderful! Thanks Bernd! I also appreciate the variety of inclusions. You never know what you're going to get when you cut an 869. I have one that is already sliced but needs work. Perhaps someone could shed some light on the grey inclusions in mine. It is not clear from my pictures but there are four other smaller grey inclusions like the largest one that is 19 mm x 9 mm. It also has a stone in stone. I apologize for its appearance - I generally don't display my sometimes screamingly obvious sawmarks :) This one and the rest of the slices are gonna be even more beautiful (someday).
