Hi Martin, Thank you for sharing...

Those photos are a little too distant to see any detail... I can see it has a satin like, or velvety like surface, but a closeup of the surface detail is what I was looking for.

Anyone?

Those are gorgeous irons by the way!

Regards,
Eric

Betreff: [meteorite-list] Fusion Crust on Irons

Hi all,

With all the talk about melting and twisting of metal on the Sikhote Alin meteorite it got me to wondering what very fresh fusion crust looks like on an iron meteorite. I mean like the day it fell fresh, and not like the Sikhote.

Everyone here pretty much knows what fresh crust looks like on an ordinary chondrite, but are there any example photos of freshly fallen iron meteorites with very fresh fusion crust beside the Sikhote Alin meteorite?

Regards,
