Re: [meteorite-list] Whites dfx good for meteorte hunting??

Hi Eric, Don't want to mislead you. I am no expert.. and only recently began using a detector for meteorites. I used to have a Whites that I used for coin and relic shooting, but I didn't like the weight and handling qualities. You'll find that middle of the line (less than $1,000) detectors ma

Re: [meteorite-list] Whites dfx good for meteorte hunting??

Hi Andre, Not sure about the DFX. Never used it. The GMT is good, I've heard many good reviews from meteorite hunters saying it's a great detector. Also the Fisher Gold Bug, and Gold Bug 2 and White's VSAT. These are detectors I've found meteorites with.. They work well. Eric On 10/24/2010

Re: [meteorite-list] metachondrite

I don't think it's appropriate to say that somebody who does not like a term suggested in a couple of abstracts is a "purist who sh[ies] away from any thinking out of the conventional box"! As far as I understand the term, there do not seem to be any concepts behind "metachondrite" that are out

[meteorite-list] Whites dfx good for meteorte hunting??

Hello, is this a good detector for meteorite hunting? Any other good alternative? I already use a Whites goldmaster gmt but would like to get a better one with bigger coil. The cost to replace the GMT lead me to think in another detector. Thanks Andre

Re: [meteorite-list] metachondrite

Hello Jeff, we tried this time more to explain, what these stones are and not so the terminology, because to some list-members it seemed unclear, what these metachondrites/PACs/7ers are and how they formed. How they shall be called, we leave to each one individually (cause it doesn't change the s

[meteorite-list] Finding fossil Meteorites

Hi List, Has anyone read this great artical about meteorites being found in Ordivician fossil limestone. After reading it I starting searching months ago. And found 2 very interesting stones, One looks like it could be a diogenite and the other stone has a subophitic texture like some lunars an

Re: [meteorite-list] metachondrite

Here is the opposing view: The definition of type 6 chondrites comes from one of the classic papers in meteoritics, Van Schmus and Wood (1967): "As mentioned above, type 6 contains the most recrystallized chondrites. These chondrites show extensive-to-complete obliteration of the primary text

Re: [meteorite-list] metachondrite

Hi Steve, no.. a metachondrite is a chondrite without chondrules :-) The "meta" comes from "metamorph". A metamorphosis means, that a rock is changed in its structure or its composition into a different rock, but remaining in a solid state, while this happens. This change can be caused by diffe
