Hi list,
Nice shatter cones Mark...
Here is some photos of shatter cone boulders at Keurusselkä impact structure found
last November. Unfortunately, they are not in my collection, since they are too big

Well, most people think the Gao lot will end with a higher bid.
Personaly, I think the NWA lot will win, but who knows?
These 2 auctions will end on Sunday, take a look and watch the results
happen.
Hmm, becouse I little flooding eBay with my Gao, better chances have NWA.
But from

Stefan and list members,
Stefan offered us NWA 3099 (L/LL3) last week that to me looked like the same material
Blaine Reed was selling in Tucson. So I made the comparison and thought Blaine should
know this.
Well, after trading pictures and messages with Stefan I believe I can now say I was

Hi John and Stefan,
One piece of a pairing couldn'tbe missinga crust when another does?
This was a healthy "field" discusion worthy of this imformal list. It makes us all look at our rocks more closely. I was a fine working hypothesis- "Are these from the same fall?" With the conclusion-
Howard,
These subjects are worthy of discussion...though in the case of NWA 3099 I think it is
unlikely they are from the same fall. Stefan tells me 3099 had a nice shiny black
crust with flow lines, etc. while Blaine's piece showed no signs of crust that I can
remember. Even when he pulled
Hello List, as you probably know by now, I am putting together a mini
individual collection. Well, I changed my plans a little, and now it is a
mini collection of Falls only. My big problem is trying to find out which
ones are falls and which Falls dropped 2.5 gram crusted individuals! Here
is a

Speaking of which, Blaine also had a couple of small baskets of stonesdisplayed, labeled "CV3". (One basket contained small indiv's, the other contained some cut and polished slices and endpieces).

Hi Tom,
I think you are in for a ride. There are likely hundreds of falls that
produced 'pea' sized individuals. However the availability to collectors of
most of the other localities is essentially zero.
But good luck anyway.

Gregory,
No number that I know of...others had this material for sale also. Must be a nice
amount being found.
I didn't forget to get some. ;) And I will have some for sale. I have a few small
slices that I was going to put of ebay, but give me a note if you want one before
hand. I can send
Gregory, yes,starting this collection was a bad Idea! It all
started when I recieved my 2.3g Bensour, I fell in love with that little
meteorite! I am planning on keeping them in a large membrane box, so they
all need to be real close in size so they do not slip around. But it is one neat
Oh, great, I forgot about PF I have to have one of them, but I will have
to wait until the price drops way below the $40/g that they were going
for.
