hi  , 
Matteo the stone was seen and confirmed as an shergotite by an expert Who's 
well-known José Vicente Casado .
Anyways no one begging you to buy from him or asking your consultation ...
Maybe Moroccans have an x ray in their eyes ! there's no needs for those kind

$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.

[meteorite-list] Lunar Crater Drone Crash Video - Team LunarRock

2016-12-20 Thread Raremeteorites via Meteorite-list

Dear List Members,

Our last trip proves that depending too much on technology is not always a 
good thing.   We lost our drone capabilities on the third day of the Team 
LunarRock expedition last September.  Two team members, "Action Jackson" and 
my stepson temporarily separated from the rest of the eight person, four 
vehicle group on our way to northern Nevada.  They managed to crash the 
navigation drone at Lunar Crater, Nevada before we had a chance to use it on 
the rest of the trip.  Action Jackson is an expert drone pilot having solved 
the "Giant Crystal" mystery at Christmas Tree Pass with it two days before 
and a night flight over Pahrump the previous evening in addition to hundreds 
of hours of logged flight time.  The range had been extended on this drone 
so that we could use it to scout ahead when navigating uncharted trails and 
to determine property boundaries so that we would not end up on somebody's 
else's land or worse yet, a mining claim where you are likely to be shot.


Image of drone pre-packed for the Team LunarRock September Nevada 
expedition.

http://themeteoritesite.com/adam/Nevada2016Trip/DronePreFlight.jpg

An example of one of the flight plans over our Rye Patch, Nevada property 
near where "Curious Iron Stones" were being found by miners.  I will get 
into the surprising findings to what the "Curious Iron Stones" actually 
turned out to be later:

http://themeteoritesite.com/adam/Nevada2016Trip/DroneFlightPlan13.jpg

It doesn't matter how much you prepare for a trip.  Unexpected events always 
seem to crop up on them. Our backup drone was not ready for the trip so it 
was left behind.  It was never registered anyway.  You will note that the 
Jeep Cherokee in the video is the same one that I was offering a few weeks 
ago.  The Jeep Cherokee is like an old friend, always reliable, always 
getting us into tough areas and then out again making it difficult to part 
with.  This 2,200 plus mile journey was the last expedition that we had 
planned for it since we have more than enough updated 4X4s to handle future 
trips.  Speaking about updates, I had to turn off our navigation computers 
in the updated Jeep Rubicons since they became annoying, constantly warning 
us about dangerous trail conditions, rollovers and steep terrain. I do not 
need a computer telling when to disconnect the sway bars or engaging the 
lockers.  It became nerve-wracking having  the computer distracting me with 
verbal commands when paralleling a 300 foot cliff with inches to spare.  The 
computer would unexpectedly engage traction control, downhill and uphill 
assists making it even more problematic and unpredictable.  This made me 
appreciate the simple and very effective Quadra-Trac 4X4 system in the older 
Jeep Cherokee.


Here is the video of the drone taking spectacular footage of Lunar Crater 
before meeting its demise at the very end:


https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=-C0QWSGn108

Although the crash doesn't appear to be much, dust got into one of the 
Chinese-made motors and seized it permanently.  Even though the flight 
capabilities were gone, we managed to use its 12 decimal point navigation 
system, which is far more accurate than our Garmin Rhino GPSs to find 
property monument markers, boundaries and other destinations by hanging it 
out the window while driving.  It is interesting to note that Moon dust also 
raised havoc with equipment during the Apollo and Luna missions.



Best Regards,

Adam Hupe

Re: [meteorite-list] Lunar Crater Drone Crash Video - Team LunarRock

2016-12-20 Thread Galactic Stone & Ironworks via Meteorite-list
Hi Adam and List,

Technology is a necessary evil. From what I have read, crashes seem to
be a regular issue with drones, regardless of how experienced the
operator is. I guess somebody needs to build a robust drone that
doesn't rely on plastic and Chinese parts. Of course, weight is an
issue, so I guess that is why they use so much plastic. Maybe carbon
fiber composites could be used - expensive, but tough and lightweight.

So what is this "Lunar Crater"?  Is it a volcanic feature? It
certainly looks like a meteorite impact crater, but looks can be
deceiving.  I am assuming it is not meteoritic, since there has never
been any mention of meteorites or impactites found there.

I think I would have squelched the verbose computer as well. Having a
digital voice barking orders while one is trying to concentrate would
be annoying at best, if not downright dangerous.

Best regards and Happy Huntings,

MikeG

[meteorite-list] Ad: New Rare NWA Classifications Available (Ad 6/12)

2016-12-20 Thread Bigjohn Shea via Meteorite-list

Hello Fellow Meteorite Collectors,
 
Recently I had a number of NWA specimens classified, most of which are 
relatively rare in their classifications and/or abundance.  I have been 
diligently working on cutting and polishing specimens and finally have some 
available for sale.  
 
Knowing that this was in the pipeline, along with other classifications 
upcoming, I elected to create a website with the hopes that it would make the 
listing of available specimens easier for everyone involved.  This is a brand 
new website which has literally just gone live today. Hopefully it will 
function flawlessly, but if not please just contact me here and we’ll sort 
things out. The website is based on a Wordpress template so hopefully it will 
work well for this purpose.
 
Site:

https://bigjohnmeteorites.com
 
On the website you will find the following recent classifications:
 
NWA 10915 – Granulitic Brecciated Eucrite – A rare classification with a very 
low TKW
 
NWA 10916 – Unequilibrated CO3.0 – An unequillibrated specimen of a rare 
classification with a very low TKW
 
NWA 10917 – Unequilibrated R3 with a suggested subtype of R3.8 – Another rare 
classification with an even more rare subtype, and a very low TKW
 
NWA 10956 – H4 Ordinary Chondrite – A unique H4 with large chondrules, composed 
in part of a mineral rarely seen in meteorites.
 
NWA 10885 – L6 Ordinary Chondrite – A relatively fresh L6 with a prominent rim 
of fusion crust in many specimens.
 
Hope you will enjoy the website, and will take this opportunity to add one of 
these unique classifications to your collection. Please take a moment to 
bookmark my site as I have at least three of four other classifications 
upcoming in the not too distant future, a few of which are very unique 
classifications.
 
Domestic purchases are all shipped USPS priority, and if purchased in the next 
24hrs would likely arrive on or before Christmas Eve.
 
Please contact me here if you have any questions or concerns.
 
Cheers!
John A. Shea, MD

Re: [meteorite-list] Lunar Crater Drone Crash Video - Team LunarRock

2016-12-20 Thread Raremeteorites via Meteorite-list

Hi Mike and List,

Yes, the Jeep Rubicon's third-party, Special Operations Voice Command 
computer was very annoying. My wife thought it would help if I reprogrammed 
the stock Special Operations Commander's manly voice to a softer woman's 
voice with a southern drawl.  My wife changed my call handle on the computer 
from "Scorpion" to "Honey Badger" and finally to "Honey Do Badger" thinking 
it would be funny since I complained so much about the computer telling me 
what to do.


Now, I had two women telling me telling me how to drive, "watch out", 
"engaging rollover mitigation", "your too close to that rock", "downshifting 
on your command, Honey Do Badger " and "you better slowdown."   This is when 
I shut it down for the rest of the trip and relied on the standard computer 
and my wife who realized the computer was not good for my blood pressure.


Lunar Crater, Nevada is presumed to be volcanic.
