Carl,
I'm curious. Would cutting the stone in distilled water affect the oxygen
isotope ratios? If I remember correctly that was one indicator that was used as
proof of water on Mars.
Thank you!

Hi Mendy,
No, cutting in distilled water has no effect on the oxygen isotopes of
the bulk rock, nor does it affect the hydrogen isotopes of the martian
water in NWA 7034. Simply drying the slice after cutting is all you
need to do. Remember, this is a desert meteorite, exposing it to

Hi Jason,
I wasn't aware that there were slices of Black Beauty cut by anyone
other than Matt Morgan or myself. We both used distilled water.
As you can imagine, I am much more interested in Black Beauty science
than the business end -- I'll let others worry about the market value.

A sterile set of manual tools works wonders - good old fashioned

I agree, in fact I have done numerous break/chip/cleave on BB,
especially for the destructive analyses for isotopes. But the flat
surfaces from saw cuts, ground and polished, are needed for microprobe
and SEM.

Hi Dirk, others,
This fireball over NW Europe was actually the decay of a Russian Soyuz r/b, the
3rd stage of the rocket that launched Progress-M 18M to the ISS on Feb 11th.

Here is a link to the story of our new discovery. I want to be sure
anyone going into this area uses upmost caution for their safety.
