[meteorite-list] AD: 50g Pristine Pultusk
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 __ http://www.meteoritecentral.com Meteorite-list mailing list Meteorite-list@meteoritecentral.com http://six.pairlist.net/mailman/listinfo/meteorite-list

[meteorite-list] offers on millen, cumberland falls
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. __ http://www.meteoritecentral.com Meteorite-list mailing list Meteorite-list@meteoritecentral.com http://six.pairlist.net/mailman/listinfo/meteorite-list
[meteorite-list] Steal of a Lifetime: Mirko's NWA 5411 (on EBay)
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 __ http://www.meteoritecentral.com Meteorite-list mailing list Meteorite-list@meteoritecentral.com http://six.pairlist.net/mailman/listinfo/meteorite-list
Re: [meteorite-list] Steal of a Lifetime: Mirko's NWA 5411 (on EBay)
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.
