Thanks Tom!
That was a great website and right on time! I have cut some old rusty NWA:s and when I saw thin black lines my first thought was that it was an alteration product from the iron. Later on I realised that it could be shock melt veins. Now I could not just say that it is a condrite, I know something about the history of my meteorite too. Our mineral club have a saw for cutting thin sections but it needs some service. We have also been promised a polarising microscope from the university. I just have to fix that equipment so I could go deeper in my meteorite studies.
And thanks to everyone that wrote about the frequency of meteorite falls. The speach went very well and I got a great response. I had to promise to follow up with an article in our club paper.
Now I'm off to a birthday party and of course, the gift is a meteorite.
Have a nice day!
