Hi Mirko I made a mistake. 1 is what I meant to call Gibeon, but yes it does look like Page City. I see what you mean. And the slices of Page City were about 15 cm across, just like the one in the photo.
No. 2 is what I meant to call NWA. This looks very much like the cut face of the material Ali had a few years back. I would wager a beer on it!

This is typical for Page City and I know of no other iron of this type with this feature. I have almost all NWA iron in the collection. Such is not known to me. Please look to the Jim Schwade Collection catalog on page 59. I think the slice from the ASU collection is a full slice of the same endcut. And #2 sorry, but this is never Gibeon. In the photo is a medium or coarse octahedrite.
