[meteorite-list] AD: 50g Pristine Pultusk

2008-08-29 Thread RJP
Good Afternoon Listees,

I am curious to know if anyone would be interested in purchasing a wonderful 
50g Pultusk individual; great shape, 100% black fusion crust, single dimple 
regmaglypt, tiny collection label. A real gem. Although I don't have the 
original provenance pf this specimen, the well known dealer from whom I bought 
it from told me that it came from an old private collection. With that said, I 
am asking $750 for this one.. USPS Priority Mail postage is included, and I do 
accept credit cards through Paypal. 

Larger Pultusk specimens of this quality are only becoming harder and harder to 
find, so I encourage you to please contract me off-list if you are interested. 
Photos available upon request.

Have a great holiday weekend,

Ryan Pawelski

[meteorite-list] offers on millen, cumberland falls

2008-08-29 Thread mckinney trammell
i am taking offers on a 10g millen, ga slice and a 10g cumberland falls, ky 
slice. wholesale offer will be declined. i may play that stupid ebay game, 
depending, but they won't be give-aways. i'd let the list get a shot at them , 
first. i am considering letting my 26 g bonita springs, fl go, also. i know the 
minimum i want for each. but a multiple-specimen offer may catch me off guard 
and larger #'s may be too tempting to hold these fine skyrox, any more. good, 
solid, durable pieces. pix after offers. serious only.

[meteorite-list] Steal of a Lifetime: Mirko's NWA 5411 (on EBay)

2008-08-29 Thread bernd . pauli
Hi Listees, Listoids, and (Mega-)chondrule Lovers,

Some days ago a list member wrote about a steal of a lifetime. Such things do 
happen
and what a steal of a lifetime is probably depends on one's personal likes 
and dislikes.

I encountered such a steal today when I saw Mirko Graul's new L3 chondrite 
NWA 5411.
Julius Caesar would have said: Veni, vidi, vici. I saw this chondrule wonder, 
9.6 grams
featuring one of those megachondrules and I couldn't help buying it! It 
probably measures
about 8 x 6 mm, it is elongated, and it is out-of-this-world! It's number 2 in 
my collection,
only my cosmic onion (NWA 2384) beats it because it has an onion-shell-like 
chondrule
measuring ca. 18.5 x 8.5 mm (with concentric arcs).

Can hardly wait to welcome this extraordinary, unequilibrated chondrite 
harboring such
a fine megachondrule, in my collection... oops, I almost forgot to show you 
what I am
talking about:

http://cgi.ebay.com/ws/eBayISAPI.dll?ViewItemrd=1item=300253608412ssPageName=STRK:MEWN:ITih=020

Here are some of those megacondrules:


Parnallee, LL3 - 3 mm
Bremervörde, H3 -  4 mm
Estacado, H6 -  7 mm and 10mm
Barratta, L4 -  8 mm
Belle Plaine, L6 -  9 mm
Bluff, L5  - 10 mm
Crumlin, L5  - 11 mm
Richardton, H5  - 11 mm
NWA 4679, CK3.8 - 12 mm
De Nova, L6  - 13 mm
Hajmah, L5-6 - 18 mm
Djati-Pengilon, H6 - 48 mm


Chon-droolingly Yours,

Bernd

Wow Bernd. Good score.

I just measured the mega chondrule in my slice of Alfianello, Italy
slice. It is 11mm x 8mm and almost dead center in the face, and pretty
much all alone.

A pic can be seen if you scroll down to Alfianello in my article at
the Accretion Desk:

http://www.meteorite-times.com/Back_Links/2005/August/Accretion_Desk.htm

Is there really a 48mm chondrule in Djati-Pengilon? Got a pic of it
anywhere? Can a whole meteorite be a single chondrule? Where did the
list come from?

Cheers, and thanks.

Martin
