Hi Don,
Thanks for the list. Very interesting.
However, I need to check my records, but I honestly don't remember
paying more than $200,000 for the piece of Mooresfort I purchased from
Rob Elloitt a while back. (;- )
Here's the write-up on that one.

Correction: the 2 milligram speck sold for $500.00 not $4,500.00.

Don't forget NWA 011 when only 58 milligrams was in private hands. It sold for
an equivalent whopping $250,000.00/gram 0r 4500.00 for a 2 milligram speck.

I would guess that Semarkona would bring a very high price per gram if any

I think the most meaningful distinction is classifying them by parent bodies--

Hi Jeff and Michael,
Thank you for the input. I think what I will do is subdivide my type
list into two arbitrary categories - irons and everything else. So I
will treat irons seperately. I will maintain my "petrologic type"
count for stony, stony-iron, and everything else that doesn't fall

"Petrologic type" is really a term that only applies to chondrites. It
was popularized in the classic paper:
VAN SCHMUS W. R. and WOOD J. A. (1967) A chemical-petrologic
classification for the chondritic meteorites. Geochimica et Cosmochimica
Acta 31, 747-765
The term was meant to convey a

Though, like most things, it is a personal decision
As to what constitutes a "category" and what does not.
Best wishes, Michael

Hi folks!
I am not a type collector per-se, but I like to keep track of how many
different petrologic types I have in my collection.
I have a silly question about type collecting -
Do type collectors consider each type of iron a seperate petrologic
type? For example, are all octahedrites consid
Hello List,
Sorry if anyone gets this twice - I did not get a copy in my email as I
usually do.
Does anyone know of any R4 that is paired with Ouzina? Or if any additional
pieces were found? I am interested in knowing if the original 642 gram TKW
still stands.
Thanks much!
Ed
I was wondering if they are really vesicles or was material washed out by the
cutting fluid?
cheers

Hi Eric and List,
I beg to differ that the hole in this slice is not a vesicle. There was no
thumb-printing whatsoever on the meteorite and this slice came from near the
center of the rock, not an end cut. Look at the slice as a whole you will see
that it is round, not regmaglypted. The only d

The large hole on the edge of this slice is not a vesicle. It was a
depression in the exterior of the stone that was sliced through. Such things
are not uncommon on iron slices.
As far as the largest vesicle question, I found a hershey's kiss shaped hole
in a gao melt that was 1
ock's formation?
Cheers,
Pete

Dear List Members,
I have a question about vesicles. The reason I am asking is that I came across
a giant vesicle in a complete slice from the middle of a Dhofar 700 stone. It
is so large that it created a hole completely through a 3mm slice. Apparently
the vesicle was oblong so I do not kn
