Hi Michael and List oh, yeah, that looks like a write mistake by me. The piece which you can seen is NWA 5584 ... a R3.8 chondrite and not NWA 5548. This is of course no achondrite. I'll change it immediately... Thanks for the tip.   Best regards Mirko Mirko Graul Meteorite Quittenring.4

Hi Doug, Mark and List, First thanks for all the great replies. I want to point out that I am NOT anti- mining. I have been a lifelong Nevada resident and I believe that mining and wildlife can co-exist in our State. My main purpose was to increase public awareness of this problem. I was

I agree with you Sonny - I wasn't implying that you were anti-mining.  So sorry to anybody who took it that way.  I agree the pipes shouldn't be used, even if they are legal.   I read the original article before writing my response but I missed the part that said some caps have been falling

Hey Mark! When you find out about AZ, please post on Desertsunburn too! I thought about placing a rock in the tops of these pipes and lightly tapping it into place. However, I guess some of the older markers, like the kinds I've see are brittle and would simply fall apart. Then, I thought

Random thought for the states with no pvc laws: can you put a long stick or something into the pipes to provide traction for the critters to get out? Sent from my iPhone On Feb 18, 2012, at 3:54 PM, Jim Wooddell nf11...@npgcable.com wrote: Hey Mark! When you find out about AZ, please post

I have friends that have claims in Colorado and they drive T posts into the claim corners then slide 3 capped PVC over the posts with their claim information in baggies, under the removable cap. They also stack a bunch of rocks around the bottom. Lot of work, but they want their markers to

G'Day Sonny and List I appreciate that update Sonny, I did not know that this was the norm. PVC can become very destructive if not used accordingly. Even though you cap it, if it's not glued, the caps can be removed. I like Yanan's suggestion on those already in place. But I find PVC pipes as
