Re: [meteorite-list] eBay New Orleans

Hi Mike Sorry mate, gotta make hay whilst the sun shines. I don't get many chances in life to do this. And I don't think I have sent 40 emails do you? I may have been quoted in the bodies of replies, but that's not down to me. And I will probably continue to bore the ass off everyone until I

[meteorite-list] re: meteor velocities Hoba

Hello Jose and others I suppose that the Earth's gravitational attraction onto these = meteoroids would not account too much, on their slow, or very fast = relative velocities? No, because it is the same for both 'slow' and 'fast' objects, so their relative speed difference remains. On a

Would be nice to put some term in the add such as ADD that can be filtered automatically to the trash folder or some other folder. There was a time when my right index finger was quite worn out and the "delete" letters on the key fading, too. Steve Schoner/amsDave Harris [EMAIL PROTECTED] wrote:

Hi Steve, as it happens I think that's a good idea. I don't think any of us would have a problem with complying with a rule requesting that posting ads should have a standard word (ie eBay)in the subject to the Metlist. As it happens I generally try to do that so's recipients can safely

Hello Adam and List, NWA 1235 caught my interest earlier this year when I read the abstract you referenced. With help from a friend I was able to acquire a small specimen and construct a webpage based on information from this abstract. BTW, contrary to the statement in this abstract that only NWA

Hi, List -- Any idea how many Nakhla stones have been collected? Grady's catalog says about 40 were collected soon after the fall. I wonder how many have been found since? ? Allan Allan H. Treiman Senior Staff Scientist Lunar and Planetary Institute 3600 Bay Area Boulevard Houston,

[meteorite-list] Korra Korrabes

Hi, Last night Mark Ford and I and an enjoyable evening going thru his new acquisitions - the one that caused the most confusion was the Korra Korrabes specimen - an H3. Well, we looked at it, compared it to other H3s, also to the Ghubara, and we found it difficult to see how this is an H3. We are

Re: [meteorite-list] Korra Korrabes

Dave: I think it also depends on which TYPE of Korra you have. I have one that was found early on and is LOADED with gorgeous chondrules and breccia fragments. Later editions of KK were very weathered and thus did not exhibit the well defined chondrules. Also, some of the pieces were

Re: [meteorite-list] Korra Korrabes

There are a couple of things you might not know about Korra Korrabes. First, there are two different grades of it that were collected. The very weathered specimens are missing much of the iron due to weathering. Fresher and better preserved specimens have less weathering and fracturing and

Hello Steve and List, It is great to see you got a job and I hope all goes well with it. Even though this may not seem to have anything to do with meteorites, it does. A great deal of the slow down in the meteorite market has to do with disposable income. Even though unemployment is still over

Re: [meteorite-list] Korra Korrabes

Oxidation and overall weathering/life on earth kind of thing I would suspect makes this meteorite hard to inspect for evidence. A fresh cut face would be the best you could do in a hand sample...or obviously looking at a thin section would be ideal way to see chondrules(shape and numbers) in

H's are usually darker than L's...Ghubara is unusally black when cut/polished, for an L5 (it is a black L with xenoliths)...not normal for L's. Also Parnallee is not a H3...it is a LL3.6...which are lighter in color than H's. JD Hi, Last night Mark Ford and I and an enjoyable evening
