certificate! And what does the "specimen weight" mean? Is that the

Hi, Don, List,
The difference between the two dates is the difference
between the Julian and Gregorian calendars. Of course, the
Gregorian calendar was not devised until after the Fall, so
the date of Nov. 7 is what they called that day in the Julian
calendar in use at that time, but in a more

other reference articles and meteorite info data bases state "Fell Novem

Cool Martin, guess membership in this list does pay dividends. I learned
something.
Wonder with all the "tossing around" this meteorite's history involved,
whether the QUARTZ showed signs of "Shock"?

Yes it is - normally if you're able to identify quartz on a suspected stone,
you can throw it away, as it's no meteorite.
But in a very few, of course as you mentioned in very small amounts, quartz
is found - e.g. in some Martian basalts, NWa 856 for instance (if I remember
right) has some.

Hello All who love Aubrites,
NWA 4799 - The first TRUE Aubrite from Northwest Africa. Even though I have
previously announced NWA 4799, here are some great photos of this beauty:

Thanks Martin for the reference and the link. I know t is only trace, the I

Is not this highly unusual for any meteorite?

Sorry, came to this discussion late.
I agree, I think it is a meteorite and even I can see
it looks like a CV3.? slice. The certificate with +ve
test for nickel confused me. Do CV's contain nickel? I
didn't think they did.

Hola Pete, All,
It's a meteorite; it looks to be a piece of Allende or another CV3,
but it's certainly not an Aubrite, and is most likely not from
Australia (why would it be when it looks to be Allende...).
So...an expensive bit of Allende with a shiny tag.

Nice little gold colored tag next to the stone, which if it is not a true
meteorite, then a very convincing fake. Looks to be a chondrite of some
sort.

Hi,
We're all missing Jim Kriegh this year. His absence at

It's really nice, Thanks Geoff and Twink!
