Hi Matteo and All, I too have a slice of the Krasnojarsk pallasite from the Chladni collection. And an added bonus is that when I was in Tucson in the Southwest Meteorite Center's room, I noticed that their huge and wonderful poster of the timeline of meteoritics began with my slice of Krasnojarsk.
In the upper left-hand corner of the poster is a picture of "A small slice of the Pallas Iron" which I thought looked very familiar. I took a pic of the pic and compared it to my slice when I got home. Yup. that's mine! Cool! Here are the pics for you to compare should have an interest in seeing for yourself. http://www.geocities.com/planetwhy/kras.html Cheers, Martin On 2/9/06, M come Meteorite Meteorites <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> wrote: > Contemporary lithography of Ernst Florens Friedrich > Chladni, the founder of meteoritics as a science.
