Recent events require I clear out some items. As a long time collector
[started in March of 1984], it pains me a bit to let some of these go...
Pics and prices available on request. All these [except, of course , the
ones that sell in the meantime], will be with me in Tucson [plan to to be
there from the 5th to the 9th]. I hope some of these are a nice break from
all the nameless NWAs...
Allende Complete individual, well crusted, prominent skid mark 396 grams
Full slice, from 1.3 kg stone, large fine-grained inclusion
69 grams
Full slice, from 561 gram stone, many large chondrules 40
grams
Part slice, fractured/repaired, 6mm troilite inclusion
29 grams
Bjurbole Internal fragment, no crust, many large chondrules 516
grams
Crab Orchard Part slice, triangular shape, two natural edges, AMNH cat
number. Several large lithic inclusions, finely
scattered metal,
similar to Mincy. One of the prettiest and rarest
of the North
American mesosiderites
67 grams
Esquel Part slice, one crusted edge, beautiful large transparent
crystals,
one sawn, one polished surface.
149 grams
Gao Complete individual, 90% crust, one fractured edge, nice 687
grams
Jilin Part slices, lots of metal
4 grams 33 grams
Juanchenge Complete individual, 95% crust, very fresh
125 grams
Millbillillie Complete individual, 98% crust, flow lines, nice
74 grams
Complete individual, 95%+ crust, oriented, nice
149 grams
Naryilco End piece, beautiful light-dark lithology, crusted back shows
several deep pits and prominent flow lines, suggesting
oriented
flight. Smallest of the 3 ends cuts from the original 27kg
mass.
Some permabond was applied at ASU when the cutting was
done,
as it was feared the piece might fracture during sawing.
This is
still visible in spots, not disfiguring [removable].
650 grams
Tuxtuac Crusted fragment, thin in comparison to its' length and depth, a
classic case of what kind of damage a sledgehammer can do
to a
meteorite; still attractive...shows many nodules and a few
veins of
included troilite.
309 grams
I can be reached most reliably before 11 AM PST any day.
