Greetings Listoids,
Hello, I am new to the list and to meteorites. Please enjoy these
microscopic photographs of my four pallasite slices:

These are taken at 100X and 400X with a ProScope, at or near the
olivine-iron boundary. I'm pretty curious about some
Hi Zelimir,
Vesicles in achondrites have always interested me too. I believe around half
of the Dho 700 stones showed some form of vesicles. I have one of the 12
stones which does show a few small vesicles in the surface. You never know
what they are like in the interior though.
Question: does this basalt look like it is shocked?
Optical 40x and 100x.

These seem to indicate that mica and quartz can be expected on Mars.

Therefore these things might show up in meteorites?

Dear Dave, Very good micro-photographs. I have seen these on many
pallasites under my microscope. Analysis has shown me that the rust looking
trails are the remains of iron oxide solutions from galvanic corrosion
action under either surface coatings or Olivine xls. They micro blast off
easily.

A $5,000/kg or $10,000/kg reward for the first kg may be appropriate for
most some falls. But quickly the newspapers will drop the 'first kg'
part and spread the value at $10/g. There will also be unit errs and
report the value at $10,000/lb.
$20,000/kg is ludicrous.
I think we, as a
My opinion is that it should not be publicized except through private
channels, email, fax, and maybe local fliers. Or if you publish
something in the paper or on local TV channels simply use the word
REWARD! with no $ amount attached to it. It's all about marketing image
and I understand that

This started in West, with Bob Evans and others offering $5000 for the first

Why offer set price for first kilo? Do you really think that the people that

Dear Geoff, Thank heavens someone is thinking with their mind instead of

I agree with McCartney that there needs to be some sort of gentleman's
agreement, not for the reward amount but that there not be a dollar
amount posted at all. REWARD FOR METEORITES! is a sufficient phrase for
use in the lead generation and helps in the protection of hunters and
market
Best to consider the source on this type of tactic, Meteorite Hunters? More
like keyboard check book hunters in my opinion.
It is all about $$$ for some groups of people.
Better learn to live with it guys, this may be the wave of the future.

Greetings,
The trouble with a gentleman's agreement is you need two gentlemen.
Another problem with all this is, the next fall, when specimens are
found, the first thing that the owners are
going to do is go to the Internet and put in a search of meteorites and
price. What they will find is
