[meteorite-list] Meteorite fall New Jersey 08 May 2023

[Fries, Marc D. (JSC-XI211) via Meteorite-list]

Howdy all

  There was a meteorite fall yesterday afternoon in New Jersey, 
with one meteorite falling through a house.  Radar indicates this was a larger 
fall than just a single stone, although overall mass is fairly low.  I am 
working on the data now, but am updating the NASA Meteorite Falls page as I go:

https://ares.jsc.nasa.gov/meteorite-falls/

  Keep an eye on this page throughout the day as I add a strewn 
field and other data.  Good luck!

Cheers,
Marc Fries

[meteorite-list] Meteorite Fall - Grimsby Ontario 19 Nov 2022

[Fries, Marc D. (JSC-XI211) via Meteorite-list]

Yes that same Grimsby.  They get a new meteorite fall for 2022.  Don't get mad 
at me, I just report these things!

Web page is up at: https://ares.jsc.nasa.gov/meteorite-falls/

I am also posting tweets under my own account.  Find it by searching for Marc 
Fries, @WarrantyViolatr  Be advised that this is a personal account and 
contains opinions and comments that are not NASA-approved.

Most but not all of this fall is in Lake Ontario.  Small masses should be on 
the ground east of Grimsby, and larger ones might be on land near McNab.

Cheers,

[meteorite-list] Meteorite Fall observed - Natchez MS 27 April 2022

[Fries, Marc D. (JSC-XI211) via Meteorite-list]

A remarkable meteorite fall has occurred east of Natchez MS.  This event was 
widely reported in media because loud sonic booms were reported over a wide 
area.  This was a daytime fireball and a single video (as far as I know) has 
emerged on Twitter.

Weather radar records a nearly vertical column of falling meteorites, seen in 
at least eleven radar sweeps in at least four separate radars.

https://ares.jsc.nasa.gov/meteorite-falls/

It is currently the front page item for the NASA Meteorite Falls page.  At 
present no meteorites have been recovered to my knowledge, but I assign a high 
certainty that meteorites have fallen.

Cheers,
Marc Fries

[meteorite-list] New fall in Kenya

[Michael Farmer via Meteorite-list]

We have a large new fall in Kerinyaga state, Kerugoya Kenya. 24 April 2020 
20:00 hours. Chondrite. White, at least 15-20 kg known. Sadly heavy rains began 
the next afternoon and stones not recovered immediately are already exhibiting 
heavy oxidation. 
Save up your pennies folks. For a little background on how I got ahold of this 
fall so fast. I saw the Kenya fall on Friday night Tucson time, barely 7 hours 
after it happened in Kenya. I’ve been to Kenya 7 times, 3 for Thika fall in 
2011 (60km from this fall. Four trips for Sericho Pallasite. 
I’ll call this fall Komboini for the moment. I called my contacts in Kenya 
immediately, one of whom arrived there Saturday evening less than 24 hours 
after the fall. He was rapidly buying material for me. I have the hammer stone 
(fell on a house in Komboini) and we removed the roof panel with the hole and 
even the tile floor that was shattered by the stone. The meteorite shattered on 
impact. 
Most of the stones you’ve all seen in the photos and video I have. Some you 
haven’t seen I have. Heavy rains started hours after the fall and any stones 
recovered after the rains began are heavily oxidized already. I assume the fall 
is an H5. Seems too high metal for an L but that’s also possible. Pieces will 
be available for sale next week.    There will be enough to go around. As you 
can see I have some kilos. Many stones sadly were picked up and hammered to see 
what was inside them. Sad but will provide for lots of fresh fragments for 
collectors. 
Relax. I plan to make a coronavirus stay-at-home special offer to get pieces to 
everyone at very low cost. Money is hard to come by these days. There is a 
massive panic in Kenya with the Sericho crowd all selling and offering photos. 
Most of them can’t move because Kenya is locked down. Be warned that many are 
claiming to be there who aren’t there. Roads are blocked by military due to 
coronavirus lockdown and movement is difficult or impossible for most. My guy 
is high up in the government. He can move. 
I’m being offered stones by Moroccans that I already purchased. Beware of 
people offering pieces they don’t have in hand.Michael Farmer

Re: [meteorite-list] The Fall of Aguas Zarcas - One Year ago (and the Buzz has not worn off)

[Dolores Hill via Meteorite-list]

Thanks Kevin... and

Greetings Meteorite Friends,

I would like to add a _big thank you from the scientific community_, 
too! New discoveries were made in the field of extraterrestrial organics 
because of the quick recovery of pre-rain samples and even ordinary dirt 
from the site. We are grateful to all who provided samples for research.


Best regards to all especially in these challenging times,

I've 'been with you' for twenty-five years now. You've been with me as 
I've written here and for JSchiff's 'Meteorite', about the Mars' 
meteorites we hold in esteem, along with researchers who took us 
'inside the rock' to its elemental core, and together with museum 
curators in London, Paris and Chicago that allowed us to see their 
secret treasures.


I wrote a daily blog back to the m-list during two expeditions to 
Bolivia, when the internet was our new toy. Writing from a town next

track carried my words to you.


Imagine Bolivia, a place where few chose to become tourists, where 
Butch Cassidy and the Kid called Sundance went to 'get away from it 
all'. A place where 'you were there' when a team of your friends 
recovered the country's first authenticated meteorite.


And I'll always smile when I think about the prize fight that was a 
court battle with JPL web-master Ron Ballke, as we argued the evidence 
(or lack thereof) in regards to a dog "left like ashes in a moment" by 
the Nakhla meteorite in Egypt.


You the court ruled, 'Long live the dead dog'.

/Ojala,/ that we may together continue these adventures.

Please do not 'travel off the trail' of common sense, instead 
steadfastly cling to the route of uncommon sense. Take all precautions 
to shield yourself from these clouds of molecular terror threatening 
our lives and and everything important.


It seems that we are in a race where the finish line is not known, and 
we have become unwilling participants in a marathon where the course 
is thick with land mines.


The mountain is high. But one's every careful step is one step closer 
to the yet unseen summit, because it does exist.


Some will slip from a careless step and fall into a dark infinity, an 
indescribable infinity without a tomorrow.


Endure and survive.

Now join me. On to Aguas Zarcas!

For today perhaps a little longer I have three of the Hamburg Michigan

He looks happy too, Congratulations to Mr Ward!

Unfortunately, I'll be heading to Tucson tomorrow to prepare for the show 

Maybe it's my age (54) but it's not nearly as fun hunting meteorites
in the snow as it was when I was 35.

[meteorite-list] Michigan fall

[Matson, Rob D. via Meteorite-list]

One of the finds Robert is holding doesn't look that small to me -- looks over
100 grams based on the size. Very nice!  --Rob

Hi Mendy and all,

I still have the emails with photos and weights where he offered it to
me at $25 per gram and then backed out once he thought he could get
more.

Re: [meteorite-list] New fall in hand. Aiquile Bolivia.

[Gmail via Meteorite-list]

$4300 difference in price for personal delivery?

Wow. I saw very similar things with the Bingol/Saricicek fall in Turkey. There 
are still stones waiting to be sold by people who wanted prices far above what 
dealers and even collectors were willing to pay. Come to think of it I can buy 
Saricicek, a Howardite, even now for less than this supposed H5.

Come on gentlemen. It is these kinds of games that really turn people off. Good 
luck.

Re: [meteorite-list] New fall in hand. Aiquile Bolivia.

[MexicoDoug via Meteorite-list]

A few reasons, mostly relating to the excitement of the hunt in the altitude 
when you exert yourself ... increased heartbeat, breathing and full utilization 
of the lungs, thrill from a chase being lightheaded, especially for us coastal 
folk.  

And, if memory serves, for stones in particular,I think you could have them 
impacting 15-20% faster around 8000 feet.  That means anything much larger than 
a basketball can be in supersonic free fall, though very dependent on 
orientation and shape.  It makes witness accounts more spectacular with the 
less diffused sonic booms and then the ricocheting of them.  So for me, yes, 
very special unless you have to spend your time just shopping around to buy 
from the local hunters and finders.

Maybe not such a big deal at 6000 feet as over 8000 feet, so not another 
Carancas (altitude 12,000 feet, but Google that to be sure)... but the nice 
backdrop ought to have pick up the difference.

OK, hurry up and put up the story and stones :-) and congrats to Greg and you 
on the successful recovery!

Doug

Why does they matter? 6000~ feet or so there. Nothing special about the air.

Steve is not "reselling". You are taking advantage of a mentally-challenged 
person who loves to throw his money in the trash. He bought a piece from me and 
promptly sold it for 1/3 what he paid before he even received it. You know what 
he does, why he does it no one knows. You should be ashamed to even participate 
in that nonsense. I am ashamed I sold to him. It won't happen again. I guess 
too much time had passed and I had forgotten what was likely to happen.

 Between the people who still think eBay is relevant to the fact that a 
 Howardite fall seems blasé compared to incredible Morasko. I am 
 flabbergasted that the new collectors/dealers see clueless as to exactly 
 what an extraordinary even this was.  I didn't just go to a damned war

 alone I might add. But hey, don't worry, some campitos are up for grabs

[meteorite-list] Meteorite Fall Over Eastern Turkish Village: Bingol is not overpriced, here is why.

[Paul Swartz via Meteorite-list]

It's a nice crusted stone, pretty to look at. There are lots of nice crusted 
pretty stones available from other falls and finds. There are 159 non-Antarctic 
Howardites so how special will #160 be?

As a collector I don't give a hoot about Syrian machine guns, skittish Kurd 
guides, or the expense of airline tickets. All that is the on-the-spot buyer's 
problem, as is making money from the venture. I'm looking for nice material 
that will hold its value or even has some money left in it.

Chelyabinsk started well over $100 per gram and nice specimens are now 
available for 10 bucks or less. Similar price erosion occurred with Ash Creek, 
Buzzard Coulee, and Tissint. All witnessed falls and none very old.

It's expensive being in on the 'ground floor'!

Hello
Friends everyone buy what he want and what he can pay. Bingol is great fresh 
meteorite with excellent crust. For sure worth to buy. But as history show, 
in a few months there will be another super cool new fall, maybe diogenite 
and what will happend with Bingol ? It will be forgotten. Like first Chellys 
sold for hundreds per gram it turned to 5/g now. Same with Tissint and may 
other. Mike make great sales becouse everyone is crazy on Bingol now. When 
something new will fall, marker crazynes will go to the new material.

You didn't buy that Chelyabinsk from me, I never sold for that price. And 
I'm sorry, but a 10,000 ton impactor flooded the market with more material 
than the market could consume. Classic supply and demand. Don't worry 
about it. Since you were able to take advantage of Steve's imbecile 
behavior of selling Bingol at 1/3 of what he paid me, or not, don't know 
if he cancelled that deal, if so you got a good price. If not, then go buy 
NWA chondrites, they're nice and cheap.

I've already bought and sold more than $150,000 in Bingöl. And eBay is 
not the place it sells.

Good luck guys. Bottom feeders.

Hi John,

I completely understand what you mean, as I have made a great living
selling meteorites of all types over the last 18 years.

However, history has proven that while most meteorites do go up in
value over time - rare witnessed falls almost always appreciate in
value dramatically.

Which explains why so many collectors moving to collecting only falls 
now days.

[Bigjohn Shea via Meteorite-list]

I was not going to mention my deal with Steve in this discussion, Michael, 
because I did not want people to think they could already find it cheaper from 
others who are reselling for their own reasons.  I did not want to undermine 
your investment by stating that, but now the cat is out of the bag, and that is 
your doing.

Yes, in case anyone is wondering, you can already find a good deal on Bingol by 
having a little patience, and buying a piece from someone reselling.  Like I 
said before, I am always looking for the deals.  Otherwise how do you afford 
meteorites on a Medical Student's income...?

All this discussion about prices does not change the current prices, it only 
changes the attitude toward these prices in the future.  That's what is 
important in my mind.

[Gmail via Meteorite-list]

John,

There is a great deal of Morasko and there will, in the end, be not that much 
Bingol. The fact that there are many crusted individuals is a boon for 
collectors of most any budget. It may seem like a lot now because the market is 
"flooded" but that won't be the case in 6 months for sure and more like 2 
months more likely. 

In the end, it's all about personal taste and priorities. There is no right or 
wrong answer.

Best,

Mendy Ouzillou

Howardite fall or not, the price is more than I'm willing to pay.
My opinion atleast.

Sorry Ruben,

This one is terribly over-priced.
I love great historical falls, but I'll skip this one.

Just one small correction.
You wrote:  "well outside the tourist-friendly confines of the capital, "
No, it is on the main road between the southern coast of Turkey and Lake Van, a 
good 200 km from the Syrian border as the crow flies. I was there a few years 
ago, and yes the Turks were picking on the Kurds and there were tanks and 
armored carriers all over the place, it made driving around very interesting. 
But quite friendly. No problem at all.

Bingol is not overpriced, here is why.


Hi Everyone,

I have been following the Bingol fall as closely as possible and
here
is why I think this fall is not overpriced.

Bingol is not Ankara. It is
out in Kurd country closer to the
Syria-Iraq borders. In addition to having
ISIS terrorists hiding under
rocks, there is a long-standing and bloody battle
between the Turkish
government and armed Kurdish separatist groups. This
meteorite fell
well outside the tourist-friendly confines of the capital, and
this
area is not safe.

Traveling to that area of the Turkey and being that
close to the
clusterphuck in Syria is taking a serious risk to one's life
and
well-being. The price of a fall tends to go up when the finder
and/or
buyer is risking their life in a tangible way.

Airfare to Turkey is
not cheap. Travel expenses are not cheap.

This is the first witnessed fall of
a howardite in this century.

The stone are magnificent. Some resemble
replicas of Lafayette with a
profusion of delicate flow-lines on
superbly-oriented specimens.
Lovely semi-translucent crust.

There will never
be much of this material on the market in the future
- the TKW is modest. This
is not another Chelyabinsk where the prices
are going to drop significantly
later.

To each their with personal collecting tastes. I am not saying
Bingol
is better than any other meteorite. I am just giving my opinion
that
Bingol does not appear to be any more overpriced than any typical
new
fall is. The first kid on the block with the new toy pays the most.
Prices
usually decline after the newness wears off.  But, given the
circumstances of
this fall, the circumstances of the recovery, and the
type, I do not see the
price dropping dramatically later.

I see a lot of this material moving on
social media outside eBay. It
doesn't appear to be sitting on the shelves very
long.  I think eBay
has become it's own peculiar animal now that does not
resemble the
eBay meteorite market of old, but that's another story.

Best
regards and Happy Huntings,

MikeG

Re: [meteorite-list] Meteorite Fall Over Eastern Turkish Village: Poor Villagers Make Hundreds Of Thousands Of Dollars After Black Stones From Space Rain Down

[Raremeteorites via Meteorite-list]

Speaking of planetary, it is ridiculous to think that some dealers are 
asking more for a Howardite than a Martian fall like Zagami.  Zagami has 
less available weight and a better story and still will not fetch the higher 
prices it once did.  It is not the collectors fault that dealers pay too 
much in the field thinking that collectors have deep pockets and can make up 
the price.


In other markets, a dealer makes his money by buying well in the first 
place,

"I moved away from collecting new falls when I paid over $600.00 a gram 
for Claxton and could only realize less than $140.00 a gram a few years 
later when broken down into smaller pieces."


This is precisely one of the points I was making earlier.  There's no 
telling how much people will want to pay once the next fall comes around, 
or the next "rare" hot planetary is found, etc. etc.

That last piece of Claxton I sold only went for $140.00 a gram at a heavily 
advertised, non-eBay auction according to my accurate books. Peekskill is 
not moving off of shelves all that quickly these days having seen the same 
pieces listed on the same websites for over a decade.


Like most dealers, I do not want material sitting unsold and stuck in 
inventory for decades so I am willing to sell at a lose if I paid too much 
in the first place.

HI,

With great respect, Adam, your references to Claxton and Peekskill do not

Hi Adam,

I purchased Claxton shortly after it fell. I paid much less than $140 per
gram. When did you buy it? 

Thanks,

[Ruben Garcia via Meteorite-list]

Hi all,

From what I hear it's mostly because it's very expensive - even out in
the field. I just spent 10's of thousands of dollars for a handful of
nice but very small 100 % crusted individuals.

Most are already sold, but I'll post the last few of them for sale very soon!

Re: [meteorite-list] Meteorite Fall Over Eastern Turkish Village: Poor Villagers Make Hundreds Of Thousands Of Dollars After Black Stones From Space Rain Down

[Bigjohn Shea via Meteorite-list]

Mendy,
Currently, if you search for "Morasko meteorite" on ebay, you get about 70 
results that are actual meteorites, not labels.  Mind you, better than 60% of 
them are listed by one seller, who could withdrawal them at any moment, and 
they are not all large attractive slices.

If you search for "Bingol Meteorite" you get 60 results, and at 120-150$/g they 
are not selling fast.  I've seen them get relisted multiple times so far.  I 
watch the items for deals all the time.

I agree that in the long run, there will likely always be Morasko on the 
market, and the Bingol numbers will likely diminish once the hype does, or the 
specimens run out.

That being said, a 177g etched Morasko slice will always look better on the 
shelf than a 3g piece of Bingol, and for that reason seems more worthy of the 
money in my mind.

I've said my piece by now.  No need to keep beating a dead horse.  :-)

Cheers,
John

Re: [meteorite-list] Meteorite Fall Over Eastern Turkish Village: Poor Villagers Make Hundreds Of Thousands Of Dollars After Black Stones From Space Rain Down

[Michael Farmer via Meteorite-list]

Who is this? A new dealer?
Comparing a howardite fall to Morasko? A frigging rotten old iron that can be 
found by the ton? Identical to campo? Please, these people need to go find a 
meteorite Walmart. Leave the actual good stuff to the professionals? 
I've already bought and sold more than $150,000 in Bingöl. And eBay is not the 
place it sells.
Good luck guys. Bottom feeders.

Re: [meteorite-list] Meteorite Fall Over Eastern Turkish Village: Poor Villagers Make Hundreds Of Thousands Of Dollars After Black Stones From Space Rain Down

[Ruben Garcia via Meteorite-list]

Hi,

Generally speaking - and with the possible exception of crazy rare
Black Beauty type material - falls hold their value, and rise in value
much better than finds. Morasko and Campo (rusting or otherwise) are
not even close.

 Other achondrite falls like Passamonte  - $1000 per gram

Re: [meteorite-list] Meteorite Fall Over Eastern Turkish Village: Poor Villagers Make Hundreds Of Thousands Of Dollars After Black Stones From Space Rain Down

[Bigjohn Shea via Meteorite-list]

Ruben,
For 450$ you can get a 3g piece of Bingol (that you need a loop to really 
enjoy) or you can get a 177g etched slice of Morasko that looks phenomenal in 
your collection.

Added to this, that Bingol piece really isn't any harder to find for the buyer 
than Morasko, and in the long run will probably be worth 50-75% of what you pay 
now.

Howardite fall or not, the price is more than I'm willing to pay.
My opinion atleast.
Cheers,
John

Re: [meteorite-list] Meteorite Fall Over Eastern Turkish Village: Poor Villagers Make Hundreds Of Thousands Of Dollars After Black Stones From Space Rain Down

[Shawn Alan via Meteorite-list]

Hello Ruben and John

I think with any fall it will be over priced but in a few months the
value should fall. To be honest there isn't any thing special with the
actual fall. The only thing that might cause this to go up in price is
some scientist coins up a new chemical in this type of meteorite.
Howardites are lead to be from from Vest. Not including HED/ Vesta
meteorite there are over 942 meteorites from there. How many more do
collecters need to collect from one body. Like for me, all I need is one
lunar meteorite and only one or 2 meteorites from Mars. At any rate, it
will be exciting to see the write up and anything else becomes of this
fall.

Re: [meteorite-list] Meteorite Fall Over Eastern Turkish Village: Poor Villagers Make Hundreds Of Thousands Of Dollars After Black Stones From Space Rain Down

[Bigjohn Shea via Meteorite-list]

"I moved away from collecting new falls when I paid over $600.00 a gram for 
Claxton and could only realize less than $140.00 a gram a few years later when 
broken down into smaller pieces."

This is precisely one of the points I was making earlier.  There's no telling 
how much people will want to pay once the next fall comes around, or the next 
"rare" hot planetary is found, etc. etc.

Re: [meteorite-list] Meteorite Fall Over Eastern Turkish Village: Poor Villagers Make Hundreds Of Thousands Of Dollars After Black Stones From Space Rain Down

[Michael Farmer via Meteorite-list]

And who do you think paid them that 
money? By the way, I'm almost sold out. As usual the people who don't have it 
are poo-pooing it. Anyone who tries to act like this howardite fall is lame, 
one of a handful ever and first one ever where small perfect complete oriented 
stones are available to all. Anyone pretending this magnificent fall is 
anything less is just delusional, uneducated, or jealous.

Re: [meteorite-list] Meteorite Fall Over Eastern Turkish Village: Poor Villagers Make Hundreds Of Thousands Of Dollars After Black Stones From Space Rain Down

[Ruben Garcia via Meteorite-list]

Hi John,

I completely understand what you mean, as I have made a great living
selling meteorites of all types over the last 18 years.

However, history has proven that while most meteorites do go up in
value over time - rare witnessed falls almost always appreciate in
value dramatically.

Which explains why so many collectors moving to collecting only falls now days.

Ha ha,

Anne I love you but please point me to where I can buy Passamonte for
$250 to $300 per gram.  I will buy it right now!

A link, a name, anything would be appreciated.

Re: [meteorite-list] Meteorite Fall Over Eastern Turkish Village: Bingol is not overpriced, here is why.

[Galactic Stone & Ironworks via Meteorite-list]

Hi Everyone,

I have been following the Bingol fall as closely as possible and here
is why I think this fall is not overpriced.

Bingol is not Ankara. It is out in Kurd country closer to the
Syria-Iraq borders. In addition to having ISIS terrorists hiding under
rocks, there is a long-standing and bloody battle between the Turkish
government and armed Kurdish separatist groups. This meteorite fell
well outside the tourist-friendly confines of the capital, and this
area is not safe.

Traveling to that area of the Turkey and being that close to the
clusterphuck in Syria is taking a serious risk to one's life and
well-being. The price of a fall tends to go up when the finder and/or
buyer is risking their life in a tangible way.

Airfare to Turkey is not cheap. Travel expenses are not cheap.

This is the first witnessed fall of a howardite in this century.

The stone are magnificent. Some resemble replicas of Lafayette with a
profusion of delicate flow-lines on superbly-oriented specimens.
Lovely semi-translucent crust.

There will never be much of this material on the market in the future
- the TKW is modest. This is not another Chelyabinsk where the prices
are going to drop significantly later.

To each their with personal collecting tastes. I am not saying Bingol
is better than any other meteorite. I am just giving my opinion that
Bingol does not appear to be any more overpriced than any typical new
fall is. The first kid on the block with the new toy pays the most.
Prices usually decline after the newness wears off.  But, given the
circumstances of this fall, the circumstances of the recovery, and the
type, I do not see the price dropping dramatically later.

I see a lot of this material moving on social media outside eBay. It
doesn't appear to be sitting on the shelves very long.  I think eBay
has become it's own peculiar animal now that does not resemble the
eBay meteorite market of old, but that's another story.

Best regards and Happy Huntings,

MikeG

Re: [meteorite-list] Meteorite Fall Over Eastern Turkish Village: Poor Villagers Make Hundreds Of Thousands Of Dollars After Black Stones From Space Rain Down

[Raremeteorites via Meteorite-list]

I moved away from collecting new falls when I paid over $600.00 a gram for 
Claxton and could only realize less than $140.00 a gram a few years later 
when broken down into smaller pieces.  Peekskill can be had for a fraction 
of the price it once sold for.   The asking is price is way too high on this 
new Howardite when the famous Kopoeta Howardite with much more history and 
much less total weight only fetches around $100.00 a gram at auction.


Then there are a few other issues like greedy con artists substituting fresh 
NWA material for witnessed falls or a serious decline in collectors 
disposable income since 2008 that puts downward price pressure on all 
collectables.


A collectable of any sort has to be extremely desirable and very different 
to survive as an investment in this very slowly recovering economy.

Re: [meteorite-list] Meteorite Fall Over Eastern Turkish Village: Poor Villagers Make Hundreds Of Thousands Of Dollars After Black Stones From Space Rain Down

[Raremeteorites via Meteorite-list]

Like a lot of collectors, I paid way too much for it several years after the 
fall when meteorite collecting was at it peek around 2003.   I learned 
shortly afterwards not to buy into the hype that centers around new falls 
like Park Forest.

Hi Adam,

I purchased Claxton shortly after it fell. I paid much less than $140 per
gram. When did you buy it?

Thanks,

That last piece of Claxton I sold only went for $140.00 a gram at a 
heavily

advertised, non-eBay auction according to my accurate books. Peekskill is
not moving off of shelves all that quickly these days having seen the same
pieces listed on the same websites for over a decade.

Like most dealers, I do not want material sitting unsold and stuck in
inventory for decades so I am willing to sell at a lose if I paid too much
in the first place.

HI,

With great respect, Adam, your references to Claxton and Peekskill do not
comport with what I've read -- as well was what I've experienced -- and I
don't think I'm going out on a limb here by suggesting I'm not alone here.

Re: [meteorite-list] Meteorite Fall Over Eastern Turkish Village: Poor Villagers Make Hundreds Of Thousands Of Dollars After Black Stones From Space Rain Down

[Bigjohn Shea via Meteorite-list]

My, my Michael...

Bottom feeder?  Is that me?  I guess so...  Me who has collected many hundreds 
of meteorite specimens on the budget of a Medical School student.

How many collectors are out there just like me, or very similar?   Most people 
are collecting on a real budget, and happy to have a collection at all let 
alone one with a 22g piece of a Howardite that cost them $3,000.

Furthermore, how many years will it take before you call Bingol a rotten old 
Howardite that should be sold at the Walmart?

Collectors, like dealers are all different. Everyone has an opinion,
and a particular style of collecting, no big deal.

Like I said, I sell pretty much all types of meteorites so even though
I don't agree with Bigjohn (on this particular subject) I'm glad he's
around. Heck, I'd even sell him a Morasko slice.  : ).

Re: [meteorite-list] Meteorite Fall Over Eastern Turkish Village: Poor Villagers Make Hundreds Of Thousands Of Dollars After Black Stones From Space Rain Down

[Raremeteorites via Meteorite-list]

It is a myth that witnessed falls appreciate at a greater price than finds. 
Finds reached rock bottom prices several years ago.  I know because it 
pained me to see NWA Howardites sometimes selling for just over a 
$1.00/gram.  Now these same Howardites are fetching about $5.00/gram.


Speculation comes into play on new falls since there is no price track 
record to follow.  Investment comes into play on older falls and most other 
collectables which have declined sharply according to my research.  If we 
ever see a healthy economy again, perhaps falls too will recover.


You can collect because you enjoy collecting and not worry about price.

You can speculate and hope the price will increase without any track record 
to follow which is risky if you ask me.


You can invest based on experience and current knowledge of economic 
conditions.


For me, I prefer investing, not speculating.

[Michael Farmer via Meteorite-list]

I'm simply shocked at the seeming lack of knowledge I'm seeing lately. Between 
the people who still think eBay is relevant to the fact that a Howardite fall 
seems blasé compared to incredible Morasko. I am flabbergasted that the new 
collectors/dealers see clueless as to exactly what an extraordinary even this 
was.  I didn't just go to a damned war zone lightly. But it's a chance of a 
lifetime so I took the risks. Not alone I might add. But hey, don't worry, some 
campitos are up for grabs tonight on eBay:) 
Sorry guys, not at all impugning small collectors. I spent the time to package 
and ship $20 orders from Europe! In one box a $20 piece, the next box a $20,000 
piece. Sounds to me like I take care of my customers, down to the smallest 
order.

 It's a howarite fall.
 
 In my opinion it's probably about once in 20-30 year type thing.
 Expensive? Yes, but I think not over priced  - at least not for what
 it is.
 
 Other achondrite falls like Passamonte  - $1000 per gram

Re: [meteorite-list] Meteorite Fall Over Eastern Turkish Village: Bingol is not overpriced, here is why.

[Michael Farmer via Meteorite-list]

I'm sorry Anne, perhaps a good internet check would clue you in that since the 
Syrian war, things have slightly changed in that area. Go there now. I have 
videos of machine gun fire in the area surrounding Bingöl. We left 7 days early 
because my Kurdish guide was afraid for our safety. The strenwfield has Syrian 
refugees camped out in it. 
Damascus was nice place to have tea 5 years ago. Today it is a rubble pile.

Re: [meteorite-list] Meteorite Fall Over Eastern Turkish Village: Poor Villagers Make Hundreds Of Thousands Of Dollars After Black Stones From Space Rain Down

[Bigjohn Shea via Meteorite-list]

Chelyabinsk was an extraordinary event too.  I spent 50$/g on my first 
specimens of it and now they sell for 5$/g from IMCA sellers on the good old 
fashioned irrelevent Ebay. ;-)

Extraordinary event or no, that doesn't mean a piece of Bingol sold for 150$/g 
today won't show up on Ebay a year from now for less than half that price.

G'night all.  Have fun collecting. :-)

Re: [meteorite-list] Meteorite Fall Over Eastern Turkish Village: Poor Villagers Make Hundreds Of Thousands Of Dollars After Black Stones From Space Rain Down

[Michael Farmer via Meteorite-list]

You didn't buy that Chelyabinsk from me, I never sold for that price. And I'm 
sorry, but a 10,000 ton impactor flooded the market with more material than the 
market could consume. Classic supply and demand. Don't worry about it. Since 
you were able to take advantage of Steve's imbecile behavior of selling Bingol 
at 1/3 of what he paid me, or not, don't know if he cancelled that deal, if so 
you got a good price. If not, then go buy NWA chondrites, they're nice and 
cheap.

 However, history has proven that while most meteorites do go up in

 value dramatically.
 
 Which explains why so many collectors moving to collecting only falls now

[Gmail via Meteorite-list]

Michael,

Seriously! John is a collector and enthusiastic about meteorites. Maybe you 
have bought and sold $150k of Bingol, but that doesn't give you the right to 
insult people. Why not keep your personal business dealings to yourself? You 
work hard for your living, you may even be the top grossing dealer on this 
planet, but no need to tell everyone. You have a great reputation until you say 
things like this. There is room for all kinds of collectors and, dare I say, 
even dealers. I personally felt John's comments engendered some great 
discussions and provided unique insights likely shared by others. Clearly, 
based on my own response, I did not agree with John, but I never felt the need 
to insult him.

Oh well, to each his own.

Last week I noted that there were 9 instances of two meteorite falls
occurring on the same day since 1865.  I found my data on these so here they
are:

1. Aug. 25, 1865 - Aumale, Algeria (L6) and Shergotty, India (Martian)
2. Aug. 28, 1925 - Ellemeet, Netherlands (Diogenite) and Lanzenkirchen,
Austria (L4)
3. Aug. 8, 1933 - Sioux County, USA (Eucrite) and Repeev Khuyor, Russia
(Iron)
4. Sept. 17, 1945 - Atoka, USA (L6) and Soroti, Uganda (Iron)
5. Sept. 21, 1949 - Akaba, Jordon (L6) and Beddgeler, Wales (H5)
6. Oct. 20, 1951 - Manych, Russia (LL3.4) and Yambo, Congo (H5)
7. Oct. 30, 1994 - Devri-Khera, India (L6) and Lohawat, India (Howardite)
8. June 21, 2002 - Kilabo, Nigeria (LL6) and Thuathe, Lesotho (H4/5)
9. March 1, 2009 - Carterville, USA (chondrite) and Nkayi, Zimbabwe (L6)

Additionally, in two instances, falls occurred on the same day but in the
same area, and are assumed to be from the same fall. They are:

Sept. 26, 1939 - Glabggang, Indonesia (H5/6) and Selakopi, Indonesia (H5)
Both fell near Bandung
Nov. 13, 1952 - Galim (a), Cameroon (LL6) and Galim(b), Cameroon
(EH3/4-an)Rubble Pile??

Enjoy,

It is a bit outdated statistic based on MetBase data. MetBase has a
day of fall/find and MetBull doesn't. That's why not all the recent
falls are listed. But still you can play with this to see how many
falls/finds where recovered the particular day. Just choose the day

 I bought the entire remaining mass which was a large fragment of 8
 kilos and about 4 kilos of fragments.
 For sale today $20 gram.
 It is the only meteorite ever available from Zimbabwe.
 Pieces from ~1 gram to 676 grams available.

Yup.  Cartersville was never officially classified.  I'm not sure why.
It was a hammer.

Re: [meteorite-list] New fall, Nkayi Zimbabwe

[Frank Cressy via Meteorite-list]

Actually with Cartersville and Nkayi, two recovered falls on the same day has 
happened 9 times since 1865.  Don't have the list readily available, though.  
FYI, in 1933 the Sioux County eucrite fell about an hour and a half after the 
Repeev Khutor iron landed just north of the Caspian Sea.  I think Kilabo and 
Thuathe fell about 5 hours apart.

Cheers,

Frank

[meteorite-list] Barwell Fall 50th Anniversary Event 2015

[Graham Ensor via Meteorite-list]

I have been trying to work on this for a while now with various
contacts made that were interested but only now have I got a reply
that looks like something will happen.

Barwell Parish Council rang me in the week and said that they have had
a budget meeting and agreed to fund some sort of event to commemorate
the 50th anniversary of Britain's largest meteorite fall. So I am now
going to be working with them to sort out what can be done...I am
awaiting notification of a meeting which I can attend.

In the meanwhile I am asking around again from anybody wishing to help
out, contribute or join in the event.?...just let me know your
thoughts, ideas etc.

It seems they would like an exhibition by BIMS and others at a venue
in Barwell so I think I know some members who might be up for
that...;-)

I will be asking appropriate Universities, Museums and the Leicester
Space Centre if they would like to get involved too

I'll also be looking to get permission for a hunt in Barwell next year
and working with Barwell Council to see if we can get a monument
erected if there is enough interest generated form next years event.

So watch this space.

Graham

I am pretty sure this one will be found and I certainly think there are some 
nice stones on the ground. Location is perfect for hunting, just farms.
Grimsby all over again, and Rob and I both found great stones there. I am a tad 
busy to head up there though:)

Re: [meteorite-list] Ontario Fall Area Calculation 18MAR2014 Event

[Rob Matson]

Hi Mike/All,

With 9 cameras recording this fall, the trajectory is known extremely well.
Unfortunately, the final ablated mass(es) are likely to be small, perhaps
totaling only a couple hundred grams. There ~are~ some possible radar
returns for the fall, though, so we might get lucky.  --Rob

Re: [meteorite-list] Ontario Fall Area Calculation 18MAR2014 Event

[Rob Wesel]

Keeping it fun I'm gonna side with Darryl on this one, Team PB  Phil have 
an uncanny ability to motivate, educate, canvass and generally get the job 
done.  When I saw the Western PR yesterday I thought to myself just a 
matter of time now.


Rocky Road works fine.

Hi Dirk!

Interesting.  I looked and figured nothing survived.

I do not see anything real impressive on the sky cams, although a 
solution is obviously going to be there from that group of cameras which 
I will assume are dialed in with calibrated data files.
The 1 camera where the event occurred almost overhead does not indicate 
to me anything majorily impressive.  While it is a beautiful 
capturethey all are if it's overhead.

I have read that sonic stations do not have much of anything.
I have read that radar is pretty much not there.
So the main break up was about 65km and went dark at about 35km?

Do you have any other data to support survival?

Enjoying watching the frenzy and folks getting all hyped up! I bet 
nothing will be found the other day and I backed that bet up in that if I 
am wrong, I will gladly eat 1/2 gallon of ice cream!

Of course, I truly hope I am wrong!

Best!

Jim

List,
  I have now posted my calculation result for the Ontario meteorite fall 
of 18MAR-
 estimated survived weight of up to 10 Kg. Least likely survived at 1KG. 
Largest stone guess 300-500 gr.
