Hi to all my fellow Meteorite Listers,
I have just finished reading _The Rock From Mars_ by
K. Sawyer (ISBN 1-4000-6010-9). This book follows the
path of ALH84001 from the field, to the research labs,
to the news media. This is a well written book that is
a bit light on technical detail. It is
And as for Marvin being in charge of an institution that would grind up
perfectly oriented Murchisons, you are completely mistaken. He would not
allow such things to happen, and if you knew him, you'd know that. Don't
bring other institutions into this, because this is something new. It's
Hello list.I was going thru bob haag's 1997 meteorite catalog and saw
something I had never really looked at.He had a cut stone called G'DAY.I
cannot find it in A to Z,or thru google.Was it changed to another name?It

Well said David ;-)
Also in my cellar are waiting some boxes with stones to be saved for
science...
No seriously, I have difficulties to understand the hens' huddle like
kerfuffle in that discussion, nor the substance of it seems to be smth else
than a little Killgore-bashing.

Hello David, All,
Well done.
Thank you. I hope you got a smile out of it, but I'm sure not as funny
as Martin Altmann.
You've missed my point entirely.
No I believe I understand your point perfectly well, and I agree with
your feelings that material must be saved for science rather than
Steve,
You need to sharpen your search skills or something... A single Google
search revealed that G'Day is AKA Mundrabilla 020. See Meteoritical
Bulletin, No. 82, 1998 July

Hello,
I read that Old Homestead may be paired with Mundrabilla 020. I don't
know if these two have been studied side by side to reach a definitive
conclusion.

Right on!! That's straight from MB 82 that says that Mundrabilla 20 is
possibly paired with Old Homestead 001

Hi Steve,
G'Day is the meteorite formally known as Prince. Oops, I mean Mundrabillia 020.
I used to have a very nice complete slice of this howardite, but have
long since sold it to a famous collector in a large state.
Here is the link to the Met Bul. entry:
Here's a bit more that I have, not sure what the source was:
Mundrabilla 020 has a pairing score with Old Homestead 001 of 76.7 based
on the pairing criteria of petrography and geographic proximity. This
corresponds to the following:
Pairing score (%) / Pairing likelihood
90___Likely
Just another bit, from MetBase 7.1 (c) Joern Koblitz, about Mundrabilla 020:
A single fusion crusted stone of about 60 grams was found by a rabbit hunter
in the same area where the large masses of the Mundrabilla iron were found,
perhaps 15 km N of the railway. The stone is informally known as
Greetings Listee`s. I was very fortunate to acquire
a beautiful 6.73 gram full slice of Mundrabilla 020 or
G`Day from Bob Haag a couple of years ago in Tucson.
You can view it in the Mystery Meteorite Archives
under Mystery Meteorite #53 in the Meteorite Impact
Forums. It is a little blurred,

Hello Jason,
Thanks for your thoughtful replies. I don't have nearly the worries that
some may have over this new planned U of A repository, but I am
concerned about the temptation by owners of rare meteorites to sell to a

What Marvin almost always does is sell half of a specimen and keep the rest
intact. In this fashion, he hasn't entirely kept meteorites from being
cut,
but he sure keeps a hell of a lot of them more intact than they would
otherwise be, and for that I applaud him.
So in other words he does

Well done. You've missed my point entirely.
