G'day Martin, Bernd & List, Lodran is indeed still one of the more $$$$$ meteorites. Even if you could find a piece for sale I think you might expect to still pay 5-6 times more than NWA 2235. Seems cheap now Bernd! ;-)
Here's a close-up pic of my tiny 12mg Lodran fragment. Interesting! http://www.meteorites.com.au/collection/Lodran%20(Lodranite)%2012mg%20(2%20o f%202).jpg Cheers, Jeff ----- Original Message ----- From: Martin Horejsi To: [EMAIL PROTECTED] Cc: [email protected] Sent: Thursday, April 14, 2005 6:57 AM Subject: Re: [meteorite-list] Emil Cohen's Market trends of 1899 Gosh, I think I once paid Steve Arnold...the other one... several hundred dollars for a very nice micro of Lodran. I think that price was well into the $5-figures. Seemed high at the time anyway. Here is a pic on David Weir's site of a larger piece of Lodran I had the pleasure of inspecting while at the Smithsonian: http://www.geocities.com/~dweir/protected_LODRAN.HTM Click on the image at the bottom of the page to see a larger image.
