Re: [meteorite-list] Are we prepared for an asteroid headed straight to Earth?

[Mike Miller via Meteorite-list]

Yes of course we are, there  are enough hunters now to pick up several tons
of material. Never been to a fall that big, might be fun, hope it is a
remote location, otherwise meteorites will get a bad name.

Re: [meteorite-list] Stability of Sericho (Habaswein)

[Mike Miller via Meteorite-list]

Hello all I rarely post to the list, but felt compelled to point out the
obvious. First of all to the HUGE TKW of this find. Do you remember all
those tons and tons of $100 per kilo Gibeons that used to be floating
around? All gone How about the metric tons of Seymchan
pallasites.yep all gone. Or maybe the cargo ships laden with Campo's,
you guessed it almost all gone. Sericho will also be all gone in 10 short
years or less.
 Now to the stability of Sericho, yes it helps to get a big dry specimen to
start with, but most any pallasite can be stabilized. Many times crappy
preparation has resulted in a rusty meteorite, and many more times good
preparation techniques have resulted in a lifetime of beautiful pallsites
in many peoples collections. The Sericho will be just fine, no matter what
the big time know it all's say about it.

Re: [meteorite-list] Cutting An Iron

[Mike Miller via Meteorite-list]

Hi John the difference is that at the University they are interested in
science from meteorites, they have likely seen a Campo before. We are
dealers, hunters and scientists and some of us have seen  thousands of
Campo's, or even 10 of thousands. Do your self a favor and type in Campo
meteorite on e bay and have a look for your self. They are cleaned using a
very specific process and it give these irons a very unique look which your
iron has been given.
 I am going to also say that the university will likely have a different
attitude, when you speak with them on Tuesday, they are interested in real
science, not wild goose chases

Re: [meteorite-list] Cutting An Iron

[Mike Miller via Meteorite-list]

John could we see the before photos please? Of course you have photos
showing the rock fresh out of the ground? So yes a few photos before it was
cleaned would be a huge help.
