Hey List,
I just got in some slices of Sutter's Mill.
So I have a question, do carbonaceous chondrites ever have impact melt zones in
them?

A few CK6s have impact-melt zones within them, but I haven't seen any such
zones in a CM.

Well Mike,
If I can add a measly 10% to the body of knowledge of this meteorite, by
sacrificing one little stone (heck if I can help add 1/10 of 1%) I think that
would be great.
My guess is that a lot of these stones that are going into both institutional
and private collections won't ever
Hello Steve, Alan and List,
Back from watching the Mundrabilla episode of Steve and Geoff!
Great episode! But let's now move on to Steve's question. Steve
inquired:

According to my database queries, impact melt (clasts) have
By the way Mike,
Good on ya as they say in Australia, to you and Greg both, on the donation to
the U of A. It was a good thing to do and you all spun some great PR for the
meteorite community out of the event as well. Not always an easy thing to pull
off.
I suppose in 2 years or so, when the

I'm not sure what you're referring to with this statement... an entry in
MetBull will probably be published very soon. After that, there are no
Meteoritical Society bylaws or anything else concerning the release of
information. Of course, some authors may not release all of his/her
data
Jeff,
Of course there are no Laws only it seems like people almost act like there
are such restrictions. I should have put the little quotes around the word the
first time.
Of course there are financial reasons why hunters want to keep some info
private at times, for financial reasonsm. And
I can't say when the bulletin announcement may come, only that we try to
get these kinds of falls announced as soon as we possibly can. I expect
this one to follow suit.

Dear list members,
I would like to draw your attention to these images:
Sutter's Mill thin sections in high definition. Breathtaking!

Hi Steve and List,
Interesting images, thanks for posting. It certainly looks brecciated in the
slice, but I don't see any evidence that it's an impact melt.
The brecciation might explain the many small individuals...until we find the
multi kilogram main mass of course ;-)
Cheers,
Frank

Hi Anne and List...
As with ET, no stone yet for me, but the search continues. Becoming a part
of TS history would be a nice objective, and I'll consider it...but as with
all of us, need to find one first!

Personally, I see nothing wrong with cutting Sutter's Mill. We (as in the
scientific community) now have lots of stones and sliced pieces are needed for
thin sections, polished mounts, etc. The TKW is well over 300 g - compare this
with the really rare carbonaceous chondrites (e.g., Revelstoke
