Re: [meteorite-list] Current Sericho Habaswein Pallasite Prices

One dealer was offering Brenham, a well-known ruster with the description, No artificial preservatives or coatings where used in its preparation, like this was some kind of selling point. I think the referenced examples of Sericho/Habaswein were not clear coated thus the dull appearance.

Re: [meteorite-list] Seismic Event w/ Bolide?

Hi Greg – Chris Peterson summed it up nicely. I would venture to guess that bolides that lead to meteorites on the ground more often than not generate detectable seismic (i.e. acoustic) signatures. Of the U.S. recovered falls since 2010, at the times those events occurred I found seismic

I agree, Tomek. The quality in the case of Sericho seems to differ dramatically, depending on very different places the stones were enbedded. The 2 pieces of /better/ quality (link 1): bidding has reached 42 $ for 6.2 g respectively 51 $ for 14.6 g (and still 4 days to continue). I would

Re: [meteorite-list] Seismic Event w/ Bolide?

I'd also like to point out that the description of "magnitude 2.0" is rather sloppy. Seismographic magnitude scales (e.g. Richter, moment-magnitude) attempt to provide a measure of the energy released by an earth movement, at the epicenter, focus, or along the moving section. It is completely

[meteorite-list] Seismic signature for Michigan bolide last night

Hi All, By way of follow-up to my prior post, a significant seismic signature for the Michigan event can be found on the US.AAM Ann Arbor seismic station at 01:10:16 UT on 17 January 2018. I've created the following link for you to display the waveform:

Re: [meteorite-list] Current Sericho Habaswein Pallasite Prices

As mentioned before, those really are not good quality specimens. Not very representative examples, Adam. Also the 2kg or bigger specimens/lots of Hasbaswein have been selling for 0.50$/g or less from the source for months now. Regardless of size or price changes (which are temporary anyhow)

Re: [meteorite-list] Seismic Event w/ Bolide?

It's not uncommon for large fireballs to produce seismic signatures. They're created by atmospheric shock waves hitting the ground. The bodies themselves are nowhere near large enough to reach the ground intact, so all that kinetic energy never results in cratering. ("Never" as in "only every

Dear List members hard to say that price was drooped, pieces form link (showed by Adam) represent poor quality. I am sure that quality pieces cost more per gram, no matter how large TKW is. All the best Tomasz Jakubowski www.collectingmeteorites.com PTM, IMCA, MetSoc Dnia Środa, 17 Stycznia

It looks like the price of the Sericho/Habaswein Pallasite has dropped down to about 36 cents a gram in some current cases for sliced/prepared examples.

List, Has there been other bolide events that have had a seismic correlation? It is being reported that USGS recorded a 2.0 magnitude seismic event with this morning's Michigan et al bolide event. I would think that would have to equate to enough kinetic energy upon impact of the main body to
