It's been eerily quiet on list the last couple days.
I wonder why... ;)

Hi all,
Are you ready for the big one? It's a matter of when, not if, a city
killer will strike. What will this do for science, and I hate to sound
morbid, but the meteorite business in general?
I expect when they said objects 6 feet across don't make it to the ground,
they meant they don't make it to the ground carrying cosmic velocity. There
doesn't seem to be any obvious limit on the size of parent body that can
produce meteorites; that depends on the dynamics of the object in the

It's working for me.

What a beautiful stone,its' exterior was matched by its'
internal structure and what a nice bonus that your first ever
classified stone is completely unique.That's gotta feel great
again,congrats and thanks for sharing

What a beautiful stone. It must have been a hard decision to cut it
or not, but the reward was worth it - a new singular type!
Congratulations. :)

Hi Rob and List,
First of all, sincere congrats on such an exotic classification. I am eagerly
waiting
for Jeff Grossman's comments! Well, slashes (e.g. L4/5) indicate transitional
classes
whereas hyphens (e.g. L5-6) indicate breccias. In other words, an LL6-L4
chondrite
seems to have an LL6
Hey to all, hope everyone is enjoying the day!

Hello Bernd and List,
Thanks alot for all your congratulations!
Actually (luckily) it was not that hard a decision to cut Mike. Originally
it was fractured at that side :-).
The stone consist of cm-sized dark L4 clasts (Fa 25.58+0.53, Fs 22.2+0.31)
in LL6 (Fa 31.53±0.64, Fs 26.54+0.44)
Hi Rob
Nice piece, but I would like a bit of clarification. I believe there have been
other chondrites like yours with a mix of different lithologies, but simply
classified as L6 or LL6 polymict breccias. What sets yours apart? I am just
trying to understand the differences here...
Thanks
Matt
Hi Matt,
As I understand, the large size and number of clasts, and the high
percentage of one type of ordinary chondrite material versus an other type,
made the difference here. But,... I think other List members will be far
more qualified to answer this one than me.
Best regards,
Rob
