Re: [meteorite-list] Octahedrites density

2021-05-11 Thread Murray Paulson via Meteorite-list
As Anne Black remarked, Ocathedrites are a member of the Iron group of
meteorites.

I have measured the Sg of some of my Octahedrites...

Cape York at 7.89 gm/cc,
Whitecourt Iron 7.67 gm/cc
Gibeon Iron at 7.89 gm/cc

Re: [meteorite-list] Extra-terrestrial Hypatia stone rattles solar system status quo

2018-01-09 Thread Murray Paulson via Meteorite-list
Hi Tommy:

A quick search shows that the scientists are on it and it is an
intriguing rock. The interstellar interloper that passed through the
solar system recently shows us that there is material from outside our
solar system and maybe these guys have found such a sample. Very cool!
