Hi,
Just a word to boast that I am the very proud owner of a 0.315g slice of the
new KREEP-rich lunar thanks to Martin Altmann and Stefan Ralew of Chladni's
Heirs!
This is an astonishingly rare lunar (TKW 188g) - paired with Greg and Adam

Armando,
I don't know whether it's to indiscreet, but allow me a question:
What's your age?
Each collector, each museum, each lab can acquire from the meteorite dealers
partslices, fullslices, endcuts, whole stones and in most cases also the
main masses of those stones, where also micromounts
Hi Dave and List
Yes, NWA 4472 is great KREEP-rich Lunar material and if you ever want
first-hand classification information on anything we have, feel free to
contact me or the NomCom-approved scientist's for anything we have brought
to the meteorite community.
Best regards,
Greg
Yep,

NWA 4472, which is sold out, (isn't it?) as it was a 64g-stone only

KREEP first)

Hi Armando,
perhaps that last answer was to rude..
I think, that what you aren't able to see, if you construct your artificial
conflict between commerce and science, is

Hi Mike All,
Some people just don't get it! It's an individuals choice on what
they want to buy, based on what individuals see, like or collect for
themselves. This item that Mike and Jim produced is very unique indeed; even
though the Meteorite that was used is not a rare one, and is
Recently there was an interesting TV [I think the History Channel]special on
the theoretical origin of Libyan Desert Glass. It proposed a Tunguska like
air burst, in relatively recent geologic time in what was then an entirely
different ecologic environment.
Although the event proposed was
So, in the process of googling around I see that the only other KREEP rock
(other than the Hupe's and Chladni's paired specimens) is SAU 169 - which,
as far as I can tell has not been distributed into any private hands
(correct me, of course!)
The thing is about SAU 169 is that they have a
Actually you insulted everyone on this list, calling

NWA 4716 [Provisional]
Sent to Bathurst Observatory in New Zealand in March, 2007 for analysis, this
meteorite has been classified by them as H6, S4, W5. Originally I reported
2.08kg
as TKW. I have, today, notified them via email that, during slicing and
polishing

An update,
I couldn't remember the name of the crystals on the
dry lake bed but Dave Freeman provided me with the
answer:
The crystals are selenite, or gypsum, an evaporate
mineral.

Hi Martin and other KREEPY friends,
I mean no disparagement by my warm greeting ;-) I think a lot of people
would like to be the owners of a KREEP-rich Lunar meteorite.

Well congratulations to you too!
This looks like a very nice find.
Can't wait to find out from where and who at the end the meteorite belongs
to, California or Nevada?
Nice find!
It will be interesting to see what kind it is!
