Hi Dirk: I was one of the first people (to my knowledge) to etch Putorana. Nearly falling over with excitement, I thought we had a new mesosiderite or silicated iron (which it "is"). There was a decent (medium) pattern on the pieces I had. This prompted Blaine and I to send the pieces in for more analyses. The rest is history. Matt Morgan
