Hi Doug, Thanks for your compliments and all the personal emails I've received from many list members.
It was an amazing find and I still can't get over the excitement. I think this is really special find and I can't wait to get it classified and valued! BTW: I have always been apprehensive about setting up a Facebook page but today I finally went ahead and made one. I didn't even have a personal page until today. The page I created today is devoted to Meteorite Hunting And Other Adventures so, if anyone has any great stories, feel free to share them here: http://www.facebook.com/MHAOAdventures. The main reason for not setting up a Facebook page sooner was that I was afraid I might not be able to keep up with updating it and I can't stand stale websites - I'm a perfectionist and I can't stand myself sometimes. :) This marks the second cold find for me. Stories of both finds are on my new Facebook page if anyone is interested to read more.

That's a fresh, beautiful chondrite. Well done! It looks so fresh, I wonder if this could possibly be from the recently witnessed Southern CA-NV meteor event? > Doug Ross > [email protected] > > Hi All, > > I was out with my metal detector today in a known area for gold and > instead of gold, I came across this really nice specimen. > http://home.wavedirect.net/~ebay/Pahrump-Meteorite-12-29-12/M1.jpg http://home.wavedirect.net/~ebay/Pahrump-Meteorite-12-29-12/M2.jpg http://home.wavedirect.net/~ebay/Pahrump-Meteorite-12-29-12/M3.jpg http://home.wavedirect.net/~ebay/Pahrump-Meteorite-12-29-12/M4.jpg http://home.wavedirect.net/~ebay/Pahrump-Meteorite-12-29-12/M5.jpg http://home.wavedirect.net/~ebay/Pahrump-Meteorite-12-29-12/M6.jpg http://home.wavedirect.net/~ebay/Pahrump-Meteorite-12-29-12/M7.jpg http://home.wavedirect.net/~ebay/Pahrump-Meteorite-12-29-12/M8.jpg http://home.wavedirect.net/~ebay/Pahrump-Meteorite-12-29-12/M9.jpg http://home.wavedirect.net/~ebay/Pahrump-Meteorite-12-29-12/M10.jpg http://home.wavedirect.net/~ebay/Pahrump-Meteorite-12-29-12/M11.jpg ______________________________________________ Visit the Archives at http://www.meteorite-list-archives.com Meteorite-list mailing list [email protected] http://six.pairlist.net/mailman/listinfo/meteorite-list
