Hello List,
A Dutch collector-friend asked me if I would be interested in lending out
some meteorites, for them to be displayed in the Eise Eisinga Planetarium in
Franeker (Netherlands).
The planetarium is reported to be the oldest still working Planetarium in
the world (build from 1774 to 1781).

Well done! Rob,
What you have done to advance the public's knowledge of meteorites by your
generous contributions of time and materials is commendable. The meteoritical
displays in that charming, historical planitarium wll now add a dimension to a
visit that the place didn't have before.

Doesn't look like any meteorite I've ever seen, seems more like a schist or

I don't think so, and most university professors couldn't identify a meteorite
if it hit them on the head. Can't tell you how many times I get calls saying
but the geology professor says this is a meteorite. Looks like this one is
bogus too. But these local papers LOVE printing stories like

Hi Greg,
Hematite IS a metal, so that's what I would expect to see in a hematite
nodule. Some will be completely oxidized (rusted) so that there is no more
visible metal left in them, but others will still have some metal in them.
Hematite is Iron and Oxygen (Fe2O3), so that's why it's attracted
Hematite is often considered non-magnetic simply because its magnetism
can be imperceptible.
If it is highly magnetic, something other than the hematite is causing
it. Hematite is known to mix with darn near anything!

The professor mentioned in the text would appear to work in an
Anthropology department.
Hematite/Haematite is not a metal. It's a metal oxide as you go on to say.
Any free iron included within a hematite mass would be native iron and not
hematite.
