Thank you very much for sharing these close-ups!
Very interesting, very fascinating details!
What are those rusty-red vein-like features? Soil from the crater?
Are those slickensides real or are they an optical illusion?
Does it still have that sulphurous smell of rotten eggs?
Any there any

I can't seem to post to the list but I have one crusted piece of Carancas and
here is what I see: The slickensides are real and I don't think I've ever seen
anything quite like them. They're black and look like crust but their laminar
appearance suggests either slickensides or some kind

Remember when Amgala was first named, and then another name also refers to
it (Oum Dreyga). Well, this happened because the material was found in both
of those areas and that is why you will find Amgala/Oum Dreyga and both

Yep Doug,
in general one should use the official names,
but in a few cases other names establish simply by common use.
Here the stones were already widely distributed, when NomCom fixed the name.

yes, that's a fascinating meteoritical aspect: how meteorites emerge out of
space conditions (regarding time, wideness, temperature, almost zero-gravity
etc.) and suddenly, after billions of years, have to adapt to terrestrial
conditions, distinct localisations etc., mail
A year or two back there was a discussion on the list about some high-quality

I guess even when the taxonomic spirit lights a fire under me, I should

Hi Anne,

with you that synonyms (whatever they are) exist.
How could anyone not:-)?

Here is what I can tell everybody about official names and synonyms.
Every meteorite is given one, and only one, official name. This is
the name that must be used in publications. There are no rules for

And what will happen with the paired NWA-numbers,
when more stones will be found with coordinates and therefore with an

Will the old NWA-numbers be combined and the new name assigned to them too,
or will they be preserved independently from the new paired geographical

Nothing will happen to the old names. Because
the NWA specimens have no location information,
they generally cannot be officially paired with a
named meteorite, according to the rules. If, in
an extraordinary case, the nomcom decided to
establish such a pairing, it has to option of

I did not catch this when I loaded the auction but it
is grey like the rest and is a very nice piece.
