Alas and woe is me. I shall have to rethink how I let my students
handle the meteorite specimens.
One of them got a little careless and dropped my 10mg NWA 482

Would anyone on list have a specimen they can part with at a modest
cost? It was my first and favorite planetary. I

Hello list,
Does anyone still have a one or two gram piece of good ol Kem Kem
that I could buy?
I don't want a large piece as my whole collection is geared for the
5 gram and under size. (These are more affordable.)

The need for NWA's is because the North West Africa as well as other
areas provide a lot of the meteorites that we can then analize, giving rise to
the various classifications.
Not only that, but small NWA's make good giveaways for school children
and adults.

Consider this. When the meteorite or iron comes into the magnetic field of
the magnet, it is attracted
to the magnet. This could be construed as the first stroke of the piece on
the magnet. The piece needs to be stroked in the same direction a number of
times to become a magnet, so with
