Very interesting, what are voids (vesicles) doing in an iron meteorite? I have
only heard of sparse vugs found in one iron before and thought vesicles would
most certainly disqualify an object from being an iron meteorite. Has cosmic
ray exposure testing been done? It would be interesting to
HI Adam and List,
This is a fascinating specimen. Surely it represents a
previously-unknown parent body.
While the presence of vugs/vesicles suggests the specimen was not
formed in a vacuum, maybe there was some gases present during the
formation.
For example, suppose a large comet slammed

Interestingly, Albion Iron meteorite also has vugs up to 9MM and was classified

Hi Adam, Greg, and All,
I'm no expert when it comes to iron meteorites, but could these voids
represent troilite nodules or other phases which have been weathered out of

Hey, hope everyone is having a great day.
I am needing to raise funds to secure the building for the museum, I am

Hi Folks!
I have an accumulation of used gemjars that I have no use for, but I

These gemjars have label/tape residue and marker writing on them. I

as crystals, they are not. (I was corrected when I made this error.)

West, Texas fall zone.

Hi Jerry,
Yes, a very interesting paper. According to the authors, Carancas was
a true hyper velocity impact, and the crater is not an explosion
crater or penetration pit. Which begs the question - why did the
Carancas impactor behave differently than other stony impactors?
Best regards,

Any chance of getting some data on cosmogenic radionuclides in Lovina?
I guess that would settle the question about the cosmic origin once and for all.
