I purchased from you (yes, from you) a superb 27 g slice in...2009, thus 6.5 years ago. Here is a copy of my collection write-up: CLIFFORD (Colorado, L6)(S3W2), found 1962; tkw: [email protected] kg; collection code: AB 09/314 History and scientific significance: Clifford was found in 1962 in an uncultivated rangeland by a local arrowhead hunter near Clifford, Lincoln County, Colorado. The finder didn't think it was anything important, so he put it in his rock garden. Then 35 years later, Gary Curtiss, a meteorite hunter, realized what it was and got it classified in 1997. Sample description. 42x39x5 mm 27.06 g part slice, 2 edges cut, 2 crusted, dominant black, some brown spots and metallic patches. M. Morgan coll. (label lost). Was I a priviledged customer to whom you had offered this slice in premium ? Anyhow, many thanks, I appreciate the piece and its history Regards to all, Zelimir ----- Mail original ----- De: "Anne Black via Meteorite-list" <[email protected]> À: [email protected], [email protected] Envoyé: Samedi 21 Novembre 2015 04:14:59 Objet: [meteorite-list] AD - Another New Meteorite My turn to announce a new meteorite! Not a new fall, but a new meteorite (and all meteorites are really falls, how else would they get here????) CLIFFORD, from Colorado. A single stone, weighing some 11.36kg, was found sometimes in the early 1960s in rangeland in central Colorado while looking for arrowheads. He brought it home but thinking that it was just an odd looking rock he added it to his wife's rock garden. And it stayed there until 1997 when Gary Curtiss, a Colorado geologist and meteorite collector happened to go by and spotted it. He immediately recognized it for what it was, bought it and had it classified by Alan Rubin at UCLA. But then he kept most of it for himself! Until very recently, when I finally convinced him to get a few slices cut and made available ot collectors. Clifford is an ordinary chondrite, type L6, Shock S3, Weathering W2, with some large chondrules, metal blebs, and odd tiny vugs. I have now 11 slices at very reasonable, collector-friendly, non-gouging prices! Listed right here: http://www.impactika.com/clifford.html Any questions, just ask! Anne M.
