Good early morning list.Got to put in another 10 hour day.Last of a 65 hour

possible to be that big?I've seen them many hundreds of grams but not 7 lbs. I
s it really possible??
Steve R. Arnold, Chicago!!
Hello Steve, All,
I've hear tell (and seen photos) of a Muong Nong layered tektite in
the 40-50kg range in Thailand, but the asking price was around a
dollar a gram. They do come big, but they're rarely seen above about
a kilo or so.
Regards,
Jason

You owe it to yourself to have a look at the rest of his site as well.
It's very comprehensive.

Hello Paul,
I don't see any picture of your giant but according to your description,
it indeed seems to be the indochinite N° 1 in size (weight) so far.
Congratulations!
Is it a Chinese Guang Dong type ? Or...?
So far, I haven't found yet elsewhere a bigger vietnamite than my 705.4 g
splash

Very interesting, Sterling.
And what is the largest Moldavite known?
I just acquired a big one, a nice tear-drop shape, 6.5 cm long, 39 grams
exactly.
Am I in the running?

Michael,

tiny pits look Muong-Nongy to me. 3 kilos is a

Michael and List Members,
Norm is correct; your tektite is a Muong Nong type
tektite (layered tektite) and not a splashform
Indochinite. It could be from Laos or China. The
largest Muong Nong is perhaps one in Bangkok,
weighing-in at 28Kgs.

I'm wondering-- do all tektites protect the aura against negative alien

In Ensisheim (in 3 weeks from now), there will be again a substantial
