Re: [meteorite-list] What types of meteorites do you collect?
Hi Listers! While I started out with irons, naturally my curiousity grabbed me because hold a specimen in hand and under the scope is so much more of a learning experience. So, I trended toward CV3s, then CRs (SaH00182 and NWA801) facinated by armoured chondrulesnow have landed on achondrites as the most fun, LODs and eucrites. Throughout it all though, I've favored pieces that stand up on their own, some defying gravity in the display case! -Rick (Richard's my given name) - Original Message - From: Melanie Matthews miss_meteor...@yahoo.ca To: Greg Stanley stanleygr...@hotmail.com; t...@rogers.com; fuj...@mac.com Cc: meteorite-list@meteoritecentral.com; photoph...@yahoo.com Sent: Thursday, July 01, 2010 10:07 AM Subject: Re: [meteorite-list] What types of meteorites do you collect?

Re: [meteorite-list] What types of meteorites do you collect?
I've bought from you...I'm a newer guy and what I collect is large NWA unclassified. I have no interest in rare small specimens, but that may change. I'm still amazed that I own these this, and there is nothing better than a huge meteorite to examine. I have one especially that shows several different ancient impacts and different materials in one slice. It makes me wonder how analysis is made considering the 4 or5 different materials one is made up of. I'm slowly getting into the etched metals but rocks have my attention now.

I love carbonaceous chondrites, and among them CM and CVs in particular (I love the smell of Murchison in the morning ;^) For achondrites, I collect HEDs a lot, and love brecciated cumulate eucrites like Dho 007. WIth respect to ordinary chondrites, I love any unequilibrated stone, and type 3s of any classification float my boat. Oh, and last but not least, I love big, regmaglyped complete irons of all kinds. There is something about a large iron meteorite that captures the attention and imagination of most people. gary This brings up another idea for a thread: What class or type of meteorite to you collect the most and are most interested it? I myself like rare ungrouped achondrites and my favorite is the Angrites. Greg S.
