Mike,
Don't bet or you will lose. Find some of these supposed meteorites and
you can have 100 emails and customers lining up.

Wow. My innocent querry has really stirred up a hornet's nest! Interresting,
though, to see how passsionate some of you are about this, especially Adam. I
just wanted to see an etch and see if Iron and Nickle were thrown into the soup
as seperate elements, or as one piece of melted alloy.
So, does anyone know exactly who made this stuff? If not, do we have
a general idea?
Can anyone speak authoritatively on the origin of this material?
Several veterans have claimed it was an intentional fraud, but nobody
has explained exactly where/when this material showed up on the
market,
Marc Fries, Rob Matson are still the two I trust. They may be
working on this right now.
I'm still ready to roll

Hi everyone,
I received this from a list member on Shirokovsky's origin. It's a
French paper from 2005. Would anyone care to translate some of the key
points?
Thanks,

Thanks for posting this! I was pleasantly surprised to see my boys

magnet canes!

They lifted their images from this very popular video we did
Hi Bob and list
The analyses:
Metallic powder, olivine etc...
Iron: 78% Nickel:18.25%
A general structure close to a pallasite
The metallic powder structure shows that sintering was used (frittage)
The powder was produced by atomization under gas.
It is a manufactured stone.
So they decided
Is that picture at 0:25 not an all sky camera image rather than a radar
screen?

Let me simplify the formula a little bit:
1970's era Junkyard Ford Fairlane FE 390 Big Block + Olivine + Fraudsters +
High School Metal Shop = Shirokovsky
Here is the big block link in case you want to get your hands on your own
nickel-rich ataxite engine:
The map shown in the video is from the AMSMeteors.org website. I put a
post up there last tuesday the day the info was released. The post has
dark flight coordinates provided by Bill. I sent this out to the met
list on tuesday, but i don't think it went out.
What ever happened to this meteorite, ripe for the picking ...
The little beavers haven't been busy enough!

Doug and all,
From what I'm hearing there's not a real good chance of finding much.
Unless, I see something being found I'll likely not go.

Hello everyone,
Just a note for anyone that is interested. I have some items marked down for

today only, after this it's going back up or back into my collection.
Have a look and thank you in advance.

Greg is correct; unless the meteorites have been found in a demarcated
dense collection area, they should not receive separate names. The
Nomenclature Committee's policies regarding serial naming are rather
