( Ok, that a pun of one of my favorite Brian Eno album "Here Comes the Warm Jets")
I've gotten so many warped responses to the sick collector one liner I'd thought I'd try a real meteorite question:
I read a feature in our local paper last weekend about the Mono Lake tufa's having carbonates formed by bateria that look similar to martian orangettes. This article is not online, but I googled others recent references to this For example: http://science.nasa.gov/headlines/y2003/30jul_monolake.htm
In a slice of Dhofar 019, has anyone on the list ever actually seen one of those imfamous orangettes? I have a triangle shaped micro slice and before I invest in a bigger slice I'd like to know what my chances are of seeing one with these. I hear my best chances are by looking at the "veins crossing-cutting the meteorite." (63rd AMSM 5047.pdf ) Anybody got a piece like that?
