Farmer,
Since they say a picture is worth a thousand words, here is a link for
you with a photo of one of my slices that was supposedly "90%
destroyed":

Subject: Re: [meteorite-list] Sutter's Mill slices question, Impact
Melt?
Steve, are you aware that slicing this meteorite is destroying 90% of
the
minerals and science value of it? It is an extremely rare meteorite and
cutting
does far more damage than breaking.
We are having a 19 gram individual broken up in the UofA laboratory now
and
cutting was absolutely ruled out
Due to the damage it would cause, even dry. While slice must be
beautiful and I
would love to see the pics, it should really not be done on this
meteorite. FYI

Hey List,
I just got in some slices of Sutter's Mill.
So I have a question, do carbonaceous chondrites ever have impact
melt zones
in them?
