Dear list,
Normally we hardly advertise a meteorite twice, but this time we want to
give you a short note,
because we hadn't set up a Special like usually - in general we wait for
the NWA-number first,
though when we had shown samples of this meteorite, the collectors didn't
want to wait.

If I might make a guess here
The area is covered under a thin layer of water, not enough to cover the
rocks. Then the temperature drops, forming a thin layer of ice, trapping
the rocks. Then it doesn't need a lot of wind to drag along an ice sheet

Martin,
Thank you for that. It is interesting but, I don't think wet conditions in
lakebeds ( which seem obvious due to the checked pattern in the dried mud )
would apply the same as dry sand blowing. This brings to mind the question; why
do we need co-ords of finds again? Now we know. We can

My NWA 6355 lunar has been flying off the shelves. It is grouped with the only
lunar meteorites that are comparable to soils brought back by the Apollo 16
mission. Specifically, it is one of the only instances where lunar meteorites

Ice rafting is the wind or water currents moving a sheet of ice like a raft.
When the ice raft hits shore it breaks up and makes piles some that can be

I have an offer for collectors and dealers who are interested in acquiring
Breja LL6 meteorites. Breja fell 3:00am May 1, 2010 in an area east of Zag.
It features a velvety bluish black fusion crust not unlike Bensour, with a
light matrix with abundant FeNi and FeS

I heard all about this and more details at the Gem show.
In Steve's defense. I think he is trying to find a market for these wonderful

The trouble is that he is not the only one who has these space gems.

One of the main problems is with trust. This strewn field has been available

When you start pulling a ton of Brenham out of the ground don't expect to find,

world) get their specimens you will still

With the big gemstones, they've been bought, sold, and used as a
