Hello List, Yesterday my young German fellow meteorite collector David G. offered nine slices of his very fresh, carbonaceous chondrite NWA 6155. It was classified by Tony Irving as a CK4 with a TKW of only (!) 53 grams.
Those of you who have already seen the pictures David has taken of this carbonaceous beauty, can, without a doubt, confirm that this *is* a fresh CK4 (hence W0!) and its extremely low TKW certainly make it worth a closer look and a desirable addition to one's collection! Even though the online Meteoritical Bulletin says it is a CK5, it is actually a CK4 (Tony Irving, pers. comm. with David). This is your chance to acquire a stunningly fresh CK4 chondrite. Our young student from Saxony would certainly appreciate it! Of the twenty-nine CK4 chondrites from NWA hitherto listed in the Bulletin, none has been assigned a weathering degree of W0: W0 = none W0/1 = one W1 = four low = 2 ---------------------------------- Best pre-Xmas wishes, Bernd ______________________________________________ Visit the Archives at http://www.meteoritecentral.com/mailing-list-archives.html Meteorite-list mailing list [email protected] http://six.pairlist.net/mailman/listinfo/meteorite-list
