Hi Phil,
My first reaction is: some kind of slag? It's amazing the different kinds
of slag people bring into the museum as possible meteorites.

Hi
My last auction pre-Tucson is ending in one day.
Most of the specimens started at 0.99 and there are still many at that price
Some of them worth a look, even if you are not a buyer, like the 96.6g
Murchison.

EEK - maybe the first time I have ever posted two adds in a week but perhaps
this depends on what day is the weekly cutoff ?
I'll apologise now but this one is an exception rather than the rule - I do
not sell often but from time to time offer something prestigious and unique
I would like to announce my first officially classified meteorite, NWA 5511
(provisional)
NWA 5511 was a single stone that weighed 387 grams and a slice was tested by
Ted Bunch to be a LL5. It was then assigned the name/number NWA 5511.
Here is a picture of the meteorite before cutting:

I've received export approval for Tenham in less than an hour - it would
have been quicker had I just telephoned directly...
And yet in other cases it has to meander through a different administrative
path and take 6 to 8 weeks - more if there is a dissenting opinion from an
expert
Hi guys and gals,
Anyone who is a member of the MeteoriteWatch.com forums should know that

Hi folks!
This is another heads up about a great meteorite-related item for

It's a comprehensive lesson plan for teachers that covers all aspects
of meteorites - falls, types, craters, parent bodies, chemistry, and
more. It also

Hi Everyone for those interested I have up loaded the newest Glorieta
Damascus meteorite knife up on my web site, they have been selling
very quick so if you are interested in one better have a look. The

I sincerely doubt that what Phil has is slag, that's just my opinion. I also
have a large specimen of 1514 grams and it really is unique. What he has
described is very similar to what I have and I have forward him pictures and
he has replied that what he has and I have are very

Hi John, I agree with you. It looks like a meteorite.

Thanks for your reply. I will personally accept weird as an official
scientific term. I tend to use it alot. And I agree on your very
descriptive term of encrusted in jewels.
Your images are more than fantastic. Keep up the great work. I can't get
enough of it!
Cheers
John
