I agree with Keith. This cube is a wonderful specimen that shows
better than ordinary (not that meteorites are ordinary) slices. The
real shame in meteorite specimen processing over cutting. This cube
could have been cut into several slices but some one decided to
preserve it as a cube.
G'day all,
I need to pay some bills and also help fund a project I'm working on at the
moment so I'm offering a few of my more favourite pieces for sale. I never
had any intention to sell these but they're first on the list! ;-) The
pieces are:

Hi Dave,
It is unfortunate that this
business has a built-in financial incentive to cut meteorites into very
small pieces for distribution (because there is a larger market for smaller
pieces at a higher per-gram price many meteorites are essentially
destroyed...this is a plain fact
I wouldn't

Hi,
I feel a need to weigh-in here.
--Keith has (gratefully) embraced the role of the posting of images
which enthrall. This is not about Keith---pro or con---it's about
whether a Cape York cube should exist.
--While i nearly always disagree with Matteo's perspective (and I am

Obviously true, Christian. And also true in John's note that cubes are
better than slices in some cases due to less kerf waste. I'd imagine most
(if not everyone) who have commented on the 3D aesthetic values also love
spheres for similar reasons. No need to expand on that...
Thanks for all of
Your points are right on the money, Martin. I very much agree, and it
surprising to see that there is little-to-no market appreciation in terms of
perceived economic value for this work with irons, particularly slices.
I'll assume that perhaps you would second my point below re: stones, and we

The only time I have seen when a meteorite gets destroyed is when they hack up
an oriented piece or when they think the meteorite looks cool shaped like an
Iguana.
That cube looks awesome. Cant wait to see it in person.
Thanks for the photo Keith

Isn't each rectangular slice also a geometric figure ? e.g. a square ?
So this is a cube. It displays wonderful the 3-dimensional arrangement of the
crystals, as
this cube is cut 45° to the axis of the crystals. Wonderful 3D-Display!

Personally I think that it's up to each individual to collect in a way that

Hello All,
Here is another American classic I couldn't resist yesterday. Well, I had been
watching it for several days already and I had tried to ignore it after I had

Hello.
If anyone happens to run across any meteorite spheres would you mind letting
the seller know that I might be interested in them.
My email is [EMAIL PROTECTED] or they can call me at 252 444 6728
Pictures posted to the list would be great too ;)
Thanks
Listoids,
With very few comments here on the list I also feel the need to respond to
this cube story.
It doesn't matter how many slices are added for sale of Cape York,
collectors always love them and pay plenty bucks for them. Now we start
nagging about a cube..?
If this sucker would also
This is pretty good Ruben,

Moni
Of course we want more Ruben!

Hola Bob, E.P., All,
Hardly - the stuff they sell at the Meteor Crater store is shale.
They don't sell real meteorites on-site, though you can find freshly
dug-up irons on ebay from hunters for an average going price of
~$0.30/g.
You'd probably be best-off buying some Odessa nuggets or a lot of
