Dear List;
I found few rocks that look all composed of Olivine,, and I have read before
that Olivine is rarely found in large sizes. I have measured its specific
gravity and found it to be around 3.3 (Olivine: 3.2), its hardness and also
its color is close to Olivine.
Some rocks have very thin
On page 76 of their article*, the authors attribute a shock stage of S3
to Homestead and cite Rubin (1993) as their source of reference. In his
report, Alan Rubin gives a shock stage of S4 for the Homestead, H5

think they are meteorites. While I am in Mexico right now my brother has
informed me the package arrived. When I get home I plan to send them to
someone that can do the proper testing. According to the seller they

Just a quick heads-up! All of us will probably have read

I'm not sure what you mean by the word large as in Olivine is rarely found in
large sizes but in ultramafic rock exposures (some classic localities in Oman,
by the way) we can find pure unserpentinized olivine in masses the size of the
Hoba meteorite (60 tons) and larger. We find entire
Hi list-
I just wanted to let you all know that we will be
donating a piece of Willamette to the Grande Ronde Tribe, if they accept.
Hopefully, this will reinforce in others, the positive demeanor of the meteorite
community.

Hi Jake,
Hello all; Does anyone (Bernd?) know in which Meteoritical
bulletin (the number) I would find Cumberland Falls ?
I think the fall is too old to have been in the Meteoritical Bulletin.
From the Catalogue of Meteorites we have:

I no have find the Cumberland Falls, probably is not available.
No, because it fell prior to 1951. So Jake would have to dig up the

There seem to be a lot of these Eagle Butte Meteorites running around on
Ebay these days. I bought one of the first ones from someone whose handle
is geopaleo_guy; I used Buy It Now, which in retrospect might have been
a mistake :-P got too overeager. Someone probably made a pilgrimage up to
Hi Matt and list: Matt; That is a VERY generous thing for you and your
partners to do! I am sure the tribe will appreciate the offer very much.
After reading what is available on the topic, I think that the AMNH
could/might donate a piece. That was a sizable chunk (28 pounds? I
Thanks Jake. I hope the accept, but I think they want the entire mass :)
Yikes.
Best,
Matt

Hello people,
I heard that the Willamete meteorite may have been carried down to the
states from Canada by the glaciers. Therefore the meteorite should be
returned to Canada. And since I am Canadian I will take it off your hands
for you :) Or, we can take it even further. Get NASA to build a

Ah, yes, then you run
Olivine is olivine, on earth and elsewhere I

I just purchased a 1.5g slice of Allende for my
personal collection. I can not wait to have it arrive. It is not a big piece but
it is another named and classified sample for my small collection.
I know this has been asked before ...where can I
get a membrane box for it? I think this would
