Re: [meteorite-list] deformed etch pattern
Hi Bernd, You might be interested in examining CD16 on my website. http://home.earthlink.net/~capricorn89/rim.htm Be sure to click for a full screen image. It is what I call a near rim. It was found due west, at the bottom of the outer talus from the rim, about 12-15 inches deep, so probably tumbled some distance. Found in a region which was unusually moist. The crust was like a rustball, but very shallow, and when cleaned, the interior WILL NOT RUST. This is an ultra-thin slice. It also was almost impossibly hard to cut. On close examination you will note slippage plains, and what appears to be several lamella crossing an intrusive vein, they are, in fact, not related. This is the most unusual CD I have cut, although I have seen this sort of things among research specimens, but never any commercially available. By the way, I had permission to hunt. This was back when I was a student in Meteoritics under Dr. Leonard at UCLA.

CD 130 and CD 545 seem to belong to those Canyon Diablo specimens that Buchwald describes as having been reheated during the cratering impact with kamacite altered to unequilibrated, polycrystalline aggregates. Buchwald also says that such specimens tend to lose their oriented sheen. As for CD 16: It also was almost impossibly hard to cut. Maybe this was due to minute diamonds because it was found so close to ground zero and was therefore probably exposed to extreme temperatures and p r e s s u r e s !

Contrast the nearly featureless RIM etch pattern with that of an etched plains Canyon Diablo specimen.

Norton says about them: Most of the meteorites are fragments torn from the main mass on impact. Many are thin, with bent and ragged edges attesting to the great forces to which they were subjected. Polished and etched specimens show Widmanstätten patterns deformed into curved plates by mechanical stresses. Some meteorites show evidence of heating to over 800° F, which destroyed their Widmanstätten patterns, especially around the edges. These were probably ejected from the two largest craters when their explosive formation caused the greatest heating.

Late in the evening, NORAD (North American Air Defense Command) confirmed there had been a missile launch out of Vandenburg Air Force Base in New Mexico. The reports started coming in about 7:47 p.m., according to RGSO Cpl. Steve Trujillo. He said the first report was of lights in the sky, followed by an explosion with smoke, southwest of Del Norte. A check with the Federal Aviation Administration by Trujillo reported no large planes missing, with the only possible small plane down being in the Colorado Springs area. Trujillo alerted Sheriff Desi Medina to the continuing reports, and Medina had him alert Search Rescue at 8:10 p.m. By 10 p.m., RGSO was scouring the area from Rock Creek and Frisco Creek, Pinos Creek to Beaver Creek, with Search Rescue sweeping Lime Kiln Road with beeper detectors, designed to locate emergency aircraft beacons. Trujillo said about 15 calls had been received about the phenomena by RGSO, and another dozen or more by the Colorado State Patrol dispatch in Alamosa. It was about 10:15 p.m. when Trujillo received confirmation from NORAD of the missile launch, and all units were told to stand down from the search. __ Meteorite-list mailing list [EMAIL PROTECTED] http://www.pairlist.net/mailman/listinfo/meteorite-list

Hello fellow collectors, Today I realized one of my impossible goals in trying to complete a systematic collection. After skeptically encouraging Steve Arnold to pursue a portion of one of only two EH5 meteorites even remotely possible to acquire for a private collector, to my astonishment he actually came through with some - through a trade with the Museum National d'Histoire, Paris, France. I have now added an awesome specimen of Saint-Sauveur. I strongly suspect that Steve will continue to successfully pursue the rarest of meteorites for our collections and I encourage all who may be interested to join his private mailing list so as to get early notification of future rare offers.
