No need for personal attacks. - After all wasn't it your good self that said
about 'dowsing' many years ago:
First off, let me say that all you naysaying dowser denialists need to get

Mark,
LOL! I still love dowsing even if it is caused by unconscious ideomotor
responses. The pseudosciences are a lot of fun. And yes, you're right, name
calling is not right. I apologize for that.
As we all very well know, the burden of proof is the responsibility of those
making the
Yes it is interesting the way the BLM treats people. I find that ranchers here
in Nevada are some the friendliest and hard working people you could hope to
meet. My ranch is bordered by 3/4 of a mile of BLM federal land with a private
shortcut road cutting through one corner of it. Perhaps I

I just bought a liter of ferric chloride solution for electronic purposes.
I want to try it for etching meteorites ... some tips?
I have to use it alone or before/after standard etching with nital?
Thanks

You use it alone...
My best tips. 1. Google and read read read. 2. The best polish
gets the best etch.

Hello, I have a question about chondrites' petrological type number assigned
after the letters (like H, L, CM or CR ...).
I have just read something in internet but I think I have misunderstood
something.
Are the numbers from 1 to 7 in sequence or there are two different
sequences: 1 to 2 - 3 to
Two sequences, one for aqueous alteration and one for thermal

Hi all,
I wrote this article nearly ten years ago but there never seems to be
a lack of questions about this topic. This is the most complete
article I've ever seen written on the subject, so I just put it up on
my site.

Answer: you can't. The classification scheme is lousy.

Hi all,
It's been a while since I last posted to the Met-List. However, I have
something I think most have never seen - translucent
olivine-diogenite slices.
While in Tucson this last year Ruben Garcia and I purchased a large
NWA 7831 fragment and imediately sent it to Marlin Cilz to cut into
On a related topic, seems like the weathering scale could use some adjustment
as well. Meteorites classified as W0 can vary widely from a freshly fallen
stone like Chelyabinsk to one that has seen lots of weather changes like Indian
Butte. One could argue that a W0 associated with an observed
So, I'm curious if there's anything else like this out there?
Personally, I've not seen a diogenite that looks this good.

Hi Bob, Ruben, and List,
These slices are wicked nice. Hats off to Marlin on the fine cutting
and kudos to you guys for trying something like that. Years ago, I
thin-sliced some olivine xenoliths (terrestrial) and the resulting

Hi Mike and all,
To be honest Bob and I were a little nervous since the NWA 7831
specimen we purchased for cutting was somewhat expensive. Sure small
fragments can be cheap, but a large solid specimen suitable for
cutting sure wasn't. In the end we just trusted Marlin and of course
he came
Are there any better alternatives that could someday replace the current one,
and do you have any references/links for them?
Thanks,

Several people have informally suggested a two-tier system. It would work
something like this. For example, on a metamorphic scale, Semarkona is type
3.00, but on an independent aqueous alteration scale it would be 2.8 or 2.9.
Similarly, CR chondrites could all be 3.0 on a metamorphic scale, but
24 matches
