Hi Michael and all,
Let me add to your post if I may. First the Tucson Show is the Tucson Gem
and Mineral Show. It starts January 24th and lasts until February 15th. It

do it to my Millbillillie because the red stain is a uniquely identifying
feature of Millbillillie's. When you or anyone sees the red stain on that

Someone could get another light show on Sunday night (or early Monday
morning, depending on where you live):

Ladies gentlemen,
as announced earlier I am parting with a few specimens from my personal
collection. These meteorites were carefully selected over years, they meet the
highest aesthetical standards and they are worth billions (if you had to
collect them via sample return missions from the
Bob,
I agree that there is a special characteristic that would be lost if the red
staining were to be removed from a Millbillillie individual. However, it is
also great to have meteorites pristine with no terrestrial alteration.
The priciest Millbillillies are those that with dark black

Could it be gypsum?
Oxidation of sulphides - sulphuric acid, reacts with CAI and silicates
- CaSO4 = gypsum.
I have had a number of weathered sulphide ore samples which have
developed white patches on the surface after I have washed them. I don't
know if it is gypsum on my specimens but I
I have some big unclassified NWA that I have nicknamed UBS or Ugly Black
Stuff and it was growing similar looking white thin crystals as well but only

horn shaped crystal start to appear on a freshly cut surface. We quickly
threw it under the microscope and were able to
