Re: [meteorite-list] Re: America’s Greatest Meteorite Hunter
Hi Bob and all, Skip Wison is all the things you say he is but I would like to differ with you just a bit and respectfully. I'd like to say for the present time that he is the greatest living meteorite hunter. The reason for this is that Harvey H. Nininger found 222 unique meteorites using his formula for recovery. I realize that Skip has recovered most of his own finds but Nininger was directly or indirectly responsible for finding over 2,000 meteorites in his life time and was also responsible for the recovery of other meteorites he didn't get credit for. Perhaps Skip will overtake his record someday and be recorded as the meteorite hunter that has recovered the most meteorites in our life time. Perhaps he will over take Nininger's record in time. In the meantime I'd like to give Nininger the credit he always deserves (I am sure you do) and keep our eye on Skips recover efforts. More power to him! Your comments always welcomed and appreciated. --AL Mitterling Robert Verish wrote: Just wanted to reply and say that I completely agree with Rubin. America’s Greatest Meteorite Hunter is Ivan “Skip” Wilson. As I’ve been saying for years, now, “He is the Man”. And I think he will continue to keep that title for quite a while. But it’s not because of all the meteorites he has found. Skip Wilson is “America’s Greatest” for all that he has done AFTER finding those meteorites. If Skip Wilson had found all of those New Mexico meteorites, but then put them in a box and just kept them under his bed, would he still be “America’s Greatest”? Of course not. It’s what Skip did with those meteorites, after he found them, starting back 30 years ago, that distinguishes him from the other meteorite hunters of his time. If you do a Google search on “Skip Wilson” or “Wilson, I. E.”, you will find that he has been a coauthor of at least 6 scientific papers spanning a period of 20 years from 1973 to 1993. Since 1993, there have been at least 50 papers that have made reference to his Roosevelt County meteorites, not to mention the other papers that have been written about all the other New Mexico meteorites that he has found. Whenever there was a discussion about age-dating, or terrestrial weathering, or residence time, or “rates of meteorite influx over time” there would always be a mention of his Roosevelt County meteorites. The name “Ivan Wilson” has been well known to meteorite researchers for some time. But back in 1998, how many of the nouveau collectors at that time knew of him? It took the fall of the Portales Valley meteorite that year to finally make Skip Wilson a household name to the collecting community. And now that we are appreciating the fact that Skip has “found” 125 unique meteorite classifications out of his total of 211 New Mexico meteorite finds, it is only proper that we should considered some way in which to recognize all of his efforts. And in the case that Skip should receive that recognition, I would hope that he not be slighted by getting an award for “all those meteorites he found”. Yes, that would be a “slight”. Think about it. How would we know about his 125 unique meteorites, if Skip hadn’t taken the extra effort to get each of his finds classified? We would be remiss, if we didn’t give Ivan “Skip” Wilson an award for “being the meteorite hunter that has contributed the most to the science of meteoritics”.

Re: [meteorite-list] yet more thin sections
Thanks tett, Very simple setup really, just have a Canon SD630 which I point down one of my eyepieces of my microscope and click. I use dual circular polarizers on the stage ( camera filters ) and a plain polarizer in the eyepiece. This gives me a background that is not totally black but still gives bright interference colours. The benefit of not having total blackout is that crystals that have gone to extinction still show up against black matrix. The camere is set to manual with ISO 80 and using the spot light metering I centre the frame on the brightest spot in the field and shoot. This minimizes the colour washout due to bright spots, but sometimes the contrast between the interesting part of chondrule and the brightest crystal in it still causes problems. I am still experimenting with ISO setting and how to get the autofocus sharp. Sometimes its hard to get the distinct lines in a radial chondrule due to light washout through the crystal. Preparing thin sections adds a new dimension to collecting meteorites and has many challenges but boy is it fascinating, I can spend many hours at a time peering down the microscope, lucky I have an understanding wife!

Re: [meteorite-list] Re: America�s Greatest Meteorite Hunter
Hi All, This thread began because of the write-up I did on Skip Wilson for my web site. It was entitled Americas Greatest Meteorite Hunter you can read it at http://www.mr-meteorite.com While I respect Als opinion and agree that H.H. Nininger did incredible work in the field of meteoritics (who wouldnt). I really believe it is an apples and oranges comparison that would not be fair to either party. Let me explain, Nininger found 222 unique meteorites using his formula for recovery. However, his formula for recovery was not (for the most part) hunting. At least not in the same sense as was meant in my write-up. So while Nininger did track down many meteorites and was responsible for many more, I wouldnt really have considered him a hunter. Remember, I say this with the utmost respect because without H.H. Nininger we probably wouldnt even be having this conversation. (Id be playing my guitar in some club having never even been introduced to meteorites) H.H. Nininger worked full-time in meteoritics and derived his income at least in part from meteorites. Skip, on the other hand hunted meteorites in his spare time and has always had a full-time job. H.H. Nininger traveled all over the U.S.A in order to come up with his 222 unique finds. Skip found all of his meteorites in one state, New Mexico. Even more incredible, all but eight of Skips meteorites were found in a single county, Roosevelt County. (According to Skip his unique finds are somewhere between 125 and 150. I choose to use the lower number in my write up) In my mind, it is possible that Rob Matson, Sonny Clary, Bob Verish or another great un-named American meteorite hunter could one day find more than 222 unique meteorites in America. However, while still possible, it seems very unlikely that one person will again find 125-150 unique meteorites in a single county. Maybe a loftier title should be reserved for H.H. Nininger. After all he did much more for the science of meteoritics than find meteorites. Just as I doubt that any one person will out do Skip and find more than 125-150 unique meteorites in a single county, I also HIGHLY DOUBT that anyone will come close to leaving such a lasting mark on Meteorites the way H. H. Nininger did. As for Myself, I still believe Skip Wilson is Americas Greatest Meteorite Hunter Ruben Garcia Everyone is raving about the all-new Yahoo!

Good evening all. I finally ventured into the area of thin sections and have recently bought several. My most recent buy (Dho 005 and SAU 001) came taped to a piece of cardboard. While I managed to get the SAU 001 untaped, I was unlucky with Dho 005. Even though I was being VERY careful, it is now in two major pieces and a small sliver. A question come to mind for you good people who are more experienced at buying or selling thin sections. Am I wrong in thinking that taping thin sections to a piece of cardboard is probably not the best method of packaging them? It seems to me that this form of packaging invites disaster.

[meteorite-list] Re: America's Greatest Meteorite Hunter
Hi Ruben, I think you make very good points about the comparison between Skip and Harvey being one of apples and oranges. Both men made (and in Skip's case continue to make) significant contributions to meteoritics in their own ways. But Skip personally found every one of the meteorites credited to him; I don't happen to know how many of the 222 unique finds directly or indirectly credited to Nininger were actually *found* by him as cold finds, versus recognized by him when shown to him by a farmer, etc. But I would guess that Skip is the ~finder~ of more unique meteorites than Nininger. In my mind, it is possible that Rob Matson, Sonny Clary, Bob Verish or another great un-named American meteorite hunter could one day find more than 222 unique meteorites in America. I appreciate being named in the same sentence with Bob and Sonny, but unless I retire some time soon and spend a lot more time out in the desert, I'm a very long way from having as many unique meteorite finds as Skip, let alone as Bob, Nick Gessler and probably Sonny by now! (My count is somewhere from 35-40 depending on pairings, and excluding finds like Franconia, Primm and Holbrook.) Given the international scope of this list, we should reiterate that these comparisons are strictly among American meteorite hunters. There are obviously many well-known European meteorite hunters who surpass all of us (not to mention all the unknown NWA desert nomads and any multi-season ANSMET team members).

[meteorite-list] MUNICH
Well, everybody spent the day yesterday setting up or getting first crack at other dealers stock. The warm shorts weather wednesday turned into snow and warm winter jacket weather yesterday. I have never seen munich's tourist walking area so devoid of life. There were even lots of tables free at hofbraehaus last night - although only 5 people showed up for the meteorite getogether. Hopefully the cold weather will drag everybody out to the show this weekend. Its zero degrees and snowing in munich so people wont be outside any more than necessary. I will get everybody some photos of the dealers later today. Most of the main dealers are there including tons of moroccans although most moroccan dealers that I have seen so far have very few meteorites and mostly fossils. Lots of cool crockadile heads this year - more than normal. I will take a better look around today. I have been trying to put 3 or 4 sales together for those unable to attend but I have been so busy setting up and other things that I just havent had time. Got some diogenite at $10 a gram if anybody is interested and low grade meteorites at $39.95 a kilo. I have 3 or 4 hundred kilos of new unsorted stuff for people to pik over some priced as low as 5 cents a gram to pik and nice stuff at 25 cents to pik so I think my table will be the treasure hunt place this year. http://www.meteoriteshop.com/munich06/munich06.html Cheers DEAN We have the perfect Group for you.
