[meteorite-list] NWA 6392, not NWA 6290
Hi List, A recent while ago I posted some thoughts about melt structure in NWA 6290, and mistakenly meant to ask the List about 6392. While there is considerable question whether melt in provisionally classified brecciated diogenites originates from Vestan impact mechanisms vs. terrestrial weathering...melt in NWA 6392 seems to be far more distinct a possibility for impact origin. Any thoughts this time?

Re: [meteorite-list] Meteorites delivered Earth's gold
Paul, List, It seems to me that much of the Gold found on Earth is accompanied by Quartz. In fact most of the finest Non-nugget specimens are usually found in quartz. That said; If this gold came from space then where did the quartz come from and for that matter why is gold not found buried in chonditic rock instead of quartz. . Quartz does not seem to be terribly abundant in meteorites. Just curious why we don't find gold / quartz meteorites. What changed meteorites? Do we have any witnessed falls of Gold meteorites? Do these researchers consider the Quartz issue here? Thanks. Carl -- Democracy is two wolves and a lamb voting on what to have for dinner. Liberty is a well-armed lamb contesting the vote.
