$50 a gram, not 50 cents.
I know $50 a gram is not inexpensive, but I've been lusting after a nice
ask to Serguei Vassiliev or E.Twelker. But the prices
no go under for similar material.

Last time I checked Bison was listed as an LL6 impact breccia. It was a
really interesting texture of lighter clasts in a dark chondritic matrix.

Fellow meteorite collectors, if you want to see a

I have started every meteorite for one cent, and

I thought a short time ago, the BL's were referred to as NWA 1685.
So are NWA 1685 and NWA 1794 paired? Also, Dirk Ross was having his tested,

Hi Steve and all,
I find his negative feedback more offensive than anything else and yes, why
would the owner of such an important piece turn it over for sale to anyone
other than the most credible dealer/dealers? Maybe it's because credible
