Dear HUGE CAI Enthusiasts, I was reminded by Jeff Kuyken that I had offered a couple of NWA 3118 CV3 specimens a couple years ago with massive CAI's popping out of them. While I do not remember at the moment who the lucky collectors were who acquired these, I do have the photos of these

I currently house 46 unique pallasites in my collection. And am experienced with electrolytic derusting techniques. I must disagree with Tracy and Anne. I agree with Mike Farmer. If one has to pick only one pallasite to buy for their collection and wants to guarantee long lasting beauty one has
