Hello Everyone,
My typically long show report is finished, and should be up on my column
at MeteoriteTimes shortly.
I won an item I believe at the Lang auction, if someone who has their
e-mail address handy could forward this e-mail to themI would
appreciate it. (I think I won the Guffey).
I purchased a part slice of Tinnie (NM) in Tucson. It is a plessitic
axatite. I know Taza is a plessitic octahedriteso now I wonder...what
does plessitic mean?
I wanted to get one of Dorothy Norton's Mammoth books at the auction but
because I was working it, didn't find the chance. Could you please e-mail
me Dorothy or would someone please forward this e-mail to her so that she
knows I am interested. (Fred Hall mentioned it was a good).
Ok, enough I's.
Mark Bostick

Seismic imaging, gravity data and the identification of melt rocks and impact breccias from drill cores located on top of Bedout are consistent with the presence of a buried impact crater. The impact breccias contain nearly pure silica glass (SiO2), fractured and shock-melted plagioclases and spherulitic glass. The distribution of glass and shocked minerals over hundreds of meters of drill core implies that a melt sheet is present. Available gravity and seismic data suggest that the Bedout High represents the central uplift of a crater similar in size to Chicxulub. A single plagioclase grain from the Lagrange-1 exploration well has an Ar/Ar age of 250.7 1 4.3 million years. The location and age of the Bedout crater can account for reported occurrences of impact debris in Permian-Triassic boundary sediments worldwide. ++ Geology of the Bedout Structure The Bedout High is part of the Roebuck basin that forms the northwestern continental margin of Australia (Fig. 2.). Existing studies of the structure include two regional seismic surveys conducted by the Australian Geological Survey (AGSO) and the Japan National Oil Company (JNOC) and two exploratory wells drilled 9 km apart on the top and flank of the Bedout High, Bedout -1 and Lagrange-1, that extend to depths of 3052 m (9986 ft.) and 3273 m (10,738 ft.), respectively (Fig. 3, S-2). Both wells drilled through ~3 km of marine and fluvial sediments consisting of carbonates with occasional interbeded siltstones and mudstones (Tertiary to Cretaceous) and sandstones interbeded with claystones, siltstones and coal (Cretaceous to Triassic) before reaching a breccia. (Late Permian; Fig. S-2, 15). Two of the 14 AGSO regional seismic lines cross over the Bedout High (Fig. 2). In addition, four wells penetrate Permian strata (two are shown in Fig. 2.) offshore that help to identify seismic reflectors that define the Bedout structure and stratigraphy. In both the Lagrange-1 and Bedout -1 cores and cuttings fluviatile and marine Keraudren (Middle to Late Triassic) sediments are deposited directly on top of the breccia (Late Permian; Fig. 4, S-2, S-3).

Marc D. Fries asked: I see that someone is offering newly discovered Columbia basin tektites on ebay right now. Has anyone heard of these? I haven't heard anything about them until now and my skepticism meter is pegged Given that these alleged tektites look like water-rolled pieces of basaltic scoria and the Columbia Plateau is composed of basaltic volcanic rocks, I would be extremely skeptical of these so-called tektites. I would certainly request a written money back guarantee of their authenticity and documented authentication in writing of their identity before even considering their purchase.

[meteorite-list] what is the world standards for petrographical preparations(polarization microscopy)
E. L. Jones jonee at epix.net wrote: I am also interested in the use of quartz as index markers. This isn't in any of my reference books. Are they attached to the specimen and ground at the same time as the thin section? No. The person grinding the thin section uses the bifringence of whatever minerals are present to judge the thickness of the thin section. Quartz is used as an index marker simply because, it is so common as to be present in most sedimentary, igneous, and metamorphic rocks. When it isn't present, a person uses whatever mineral happens to be in the thin section as an index. Some web pages are: Making Petrographic Thin Sections http://www.union.edu/PUBLIC/GEODEPT/COURSES/petrology/thinsections.htm http://almandine.geol.wwu.edu/~dave/other/thinsections/ http://www.lpl.arizona.edu/~rhill/fossil/thnsect.html Making Petrographic Thin Sections http://www.uni-wuerzburg.de/mineralogie/links/tools/making.html Rock-Forming Minerals in Thin Section http://www.uwgb.edu/dutchs/petrolgy/thinsect.htm Atlas of Rocks and Minerals Under the Microscope http://www.geologynet.com/thins.htm Igneous rocks in thin section http://www.union.edu/PUBLIC/GEODEPT/COURSES/petrology/ig_minerals.htm Minerals in thin sections http://www.uni-wuerzburg.de/mineralogie/links/petrology/thinsection.html Another question I have. Is there a house that specializes in preparation? Kinda of like the $2 a carat faceting deals one can get in Thailand? There are many places that specialize in making thin sections. Typically, a person gets what they pay for. A quick search using Google will find a number petrographic labs that make thin sections. If you are going to pay 5 to 50 dollars a gram for a meteorite, paying 15.00 dollars for a high quality thin section is the least of your costs. The people that use to make the thin sections for my research (and search for more shocked quartz) from samples in the Brushy Creek Carter is: National Petrographic Service, Inc. 5933 Bellaire Blvd., Suite 108 Houston, TX 77081 http://www.nationalpetrographic.com/ Their price list is at: http://www.nationalpetrographic.com/thin_sections.htm Their price are average for what thin sections cost. Elton Roman Davidov wrote: Dear list members. Hello. My question is: What is the world standards for petrographical preparations. If I'm not mistaken in English it sounds like THIN SECTIONS. Yes, as noted above, the term is thin section. To be more concrete I mean: form and sizes of object glass (width,height,thickness); The glass slide of the standard thin section is 27 x 46mm (1 x 1 7/8). Larger slides are produced, but size might vary according to the lab that prepares them. For example, National Petrographic has 38 x 75mm (1.5 x 3) and 50 x 75mm (2 x 3) size glass slides for larger size thin sections. type of optical glue (we are using composition named Canadian Balsam); Hillquist A-B is used to glue slabs to slides. However, Canadium Balsam is the standard for attaching the coverslip. If you want to do any microprobe, etxching, or similar work, i.e. for identifying shocked quartz, the thin section needs to be finished by polishing and the coverslip left off. linear sizes of object (I'm sure that thickness is one to all of the world - 0.003 millimeters); form and sizes of cover glass. The only requirement for the size of the object is that it is a few mm smaller than the size of the glass slide being used. The coverslip is larger than the specimen and smaller than the slide. The coverslips come in sizes, thicknesses, and optical character that are standardized for use in making thin sections. A person needs to talk with the people supplying the coverslips and get the technical specifications of what they are selling to see if they are suitable for thin sections. ...text deleted...

[meteorite-list] FindMeteorites.com acquired by Paul Jim of The Meteorite Exchange, Inc.
Hello Everyone! Most of you don't know but Steve and I (Paul) go all the way back to late '96 or early '97. When Jim and I first started meteorite.com we had a page called Meteorite Kids. This was back in the days the Internet was innocent. I had my daughters on it and Steve had his daughter with Northbranch. So we've had a good working relationship ever since. When Steve started FindMeteorites.com my first thought was Why didn't we think of that! I watched the site with interest thinking of how we could implement Steve's concept if he should ever decide to stop. When his site was down for an extended period time we decided we should begin. We've done classifieds before starting way back in the late '90s so we had past experience to draw on. Then... Geoff sent the message to the list that FindMeteorites.com was back up I immediately called Geoff. With Geoff's help I was able to get ahold of Steve. We started a discussion with Steve which finalized last night with The Meteorite Exchange, Inc. acquiring FindMeteorites.com. Steve is very Happy! We are very Happy! This is truly a win-win for Steve and us but it must also be a win for Steve's customers. The most important priority of Steve, Jim and myself is that we take care of Steve's client base and make sure all of YOU are happy. Jim and I will contact all of you personally within the next week. FindMeteorites.com will still stay of for a few months as it will take a few weeks to merge everyone into our system as the formats are not compatible. Steve is away and cannot post to the list right now so he sent this message for me to post: From Steve: I am excited that all the resources of the Meteorite Exchange are now being utilized to best serve the needs of both the buyers and sellers. Paul and Jim's new site is everything I hoped my original concept might one day mature into, and we all get to take advantage of it right now. I whole-heartedly encourage everyone to support their new site. Jim and I will be sending out the announcement of our new site in a couple of hours.

Hello Everyone! Jim and I are pleased to announce our new site www.MeteoriteClassifieds.com. We have taken Steve's concept of matching the collector's wants with the Dealers inventory, and googlized it, and sprinkled a little ebay on it. How many of us use Google or some other search engine on a daily basis. I can't imagine trying to make my way around the Internet without one. But even search engines have limitations. First you have to link to the actual page to see if it meets your needs. There is no pre-filter... What excellent items are you missing further down the page? Second, if the item you're looking for is not listed in the search engine, that search engine has no way of going outside of it's self to find it. And third, there has to be a web site at the other end. The search engine does not retain the information it's self. Jim and I have designed MeteoriteClassified.com to fulfill all of the above. - Classified ads are for individuals and Dealers. - Classified ads are broken down into different categories. - Search by name, keyword, ads in last 1,2,3,4,5,10,20... 90 days, by type of ad and so on. - Dealer Ads can contain links to their own web page. Example Post an ad for 1 Henbury and have a link to your page with the rest of your Henbury specimens. - Featured Ads show thumbnails in the listings so you can see the specimen while scrolling down the list of ads without have to open the ad itself. - Don't see what you're looking for? Use our free Quick Find service. Your request will be forwarded to our list of participating Dealers. - High Value Item Friendly... We charge by the space. Not by the value of the specimen. - Have a favorite Dealer?

MeteoriteTimes News A new feature will be incorporated into MeteoriteTimes starting in December. For years Jim and I have tried to keep up lists of links. These lists have always been a manual process which limited their usefulness and they always contain outdated links. On the page below is our new Meteorite Directory. This directory is in a database format which automates the process and has the advantage of being fully searchable. This is a free and open meteorite directory. Everyone is invited to add their own meteorite pages as well as interesting meteorite related pages you'd like to share with others. Just click down into the section your page belongs and look for the Add Link option on the menu bar. If everyone adds a few of their favorite Meteorite places on the net, this will be a very nice resource of information for everyone. If you don't find the right category for you please e-mail me.

[meteorite-list] MeteoriteTimes Announcement
Happy Holidays Everyone! Many of you may have seen that we have incorporated the Meteorite Classified Ads into MeteoriteTimes as of December. This announcement is to let you know that as part of MeteoriteTimes, the classifieds are essentially free. All text ads are free and there is a nominal charge of $1.00 per photo. After PayPal that leaves 67 cents which will help pay expenses. The Tucson Information Page will be updated by Wednesday Night. (probably very late...) And lastly please enter your sites into our free directory. Very soon we will be turning on the moderation feature which will require more work for us and the more sites that are on before we do this the better. http://www.meteoritetimes.com/directory/index.php Thank you we wish you and your families all the best for the Holidays!

[meteorite-list] Announcing - NEW FREE Meteorite YellowPages
Jim and I are pleased to announce: The Meteorite YellowPages - Matching Buyers with the World's Meteorite Dealers! The Meteorite Exchange, Inc. has been providing our Original Meteorite Dealers page for 10 years now. As part of our 10 years of service to the Meteorite Community we have been updating our sites. In December 2005 we presented our new Look for MeteoriteTimes Magazine. This month, January 2006, we present a completely new Meteorite Dealers listing page called The Meteorite YellowPages. And... It's FREE for Everyone! The Meteorite YellowPages allow Dealers to manage their own listings. They have expanded descriptions, images, and can even add their inventory as a list of keywords to the database. The inventory keywords can be added as easily as copying and pasting a text list. The Meteorite YellowPages incorporates Steve Arnold's (IMB) FindMeteorites concept into it's database core. We tried to make this concept fit with our classifieds but we were not satisfied with the results. It was like trying to work with two left handed gloves. Our new Meteorite YellowPages makes Finding Meteorites By Dealer a breeze! Actions speak louder than words so please take The Meteorite Yellowpages for a test drive. 1. Enter the page by clicking the link below. 2. Click on the Dealer Category - Meteorites For Sale 3. As you scroll the page you'll see 7 meteorite.com Sponsors and 15 total Meteorite Dealers listed 4. Find the search window Search For Dealers and Items Here--: 5. Type nwa999 6. Press the Enter key or click on Go Now Jeff's Meteorites Australia is the only Dealer listed... nobody else. Therefore Jeff has NWA999 in his inventory keywords. Click on the image or Meteorites Australia to view his listing or click on the URL to go straight to his page. Please Note: Our original Meteorite Dealers page will continue to be available for a while as it will take quite a few months for all Dealers to make the transition to our new page. Especially with Tucson just around the corner. Buyers: If you don't see your favorite Dealer please ask them to add their site. Dealers: Please add your sites. It's Free! The Meteorite YellowPages is accessible from both The Meteorite Exchange, Inc. and MeteoriteTimes Magazine.

[meteorite-list] MeteoriteTimes Updates
Hello Everyone! We have 2 exciting things to tell you about. First, we have brought Current Meteorite News into MeteoriteTimes. We are utilizing a Google feature that allows you to click on our new Current Meteorite News link and all the up to the minute meteorite news articles are listed for you to open in our article window. Since it's a search using the word meteorite there will of course be times when an article or two may not be relevant. Our second news is that we have updated our Meteorite Directory script. There are some nice new review and rating features and it's easier to post a new link. All are welcome to add your favorite meteorite and astronomy links. The Meteorite Directory is for non-commercial meteorite links. All Meteorite Dealers can list their sites in our free Meteorite Dealer YellowPages. We are looking for a couple of volunteers to join our MeteoriteTimes team to help build up the number of links in the Meteorite Directory. Please reply to this email if you are interested in taking on this responsibility. http://www.meteoritetimes.com/ Thank you!

[meteorite-list] April MeteoriteTimes Magazine is UP!
Hello Everyone! MeteoriteTimes Magazine is now up for everyone to read. We have some announcements to make: -- Michael Blood is experiencing major computer issues and will not have his Meteorite Market Trends for this month. -- We have added a Search function to MeteoriteTimes. On the top menu bar on the far right is the new Search link. Now you can type in a search phrase and search all the issues of MeteoriteTimes for the term you are looking for. -- Most exciting is a new monthly column call Mystery Meteorites. John Gwilliam and his MeteoriteImpact Forum team member Frank Cressy will bring a new Mystery Meteorite each month for you to solve. For those of you who are not familiar with John Gwilliams's MeteoriteImpact Forum, it's the absolute best place (besides the local pub) to have an in depth discussion on meteorite and related topics. When you click on Mystery Meteorites you will see the meteorite and clues. Then click on the link on the bottom of the page to be taken to the MeteoriteImpact Forum. If this will be your first visit you must join the forum by registering which only takes a minute. Once on the forum you'll see lots of topics and all the forum's Mystery Meteorites too! As always we could not do this without the support of all our writers. Thank you all again! http://www.meteoritetimes.com/ Enjoy!

I invite you to please share your views and images of specimens that you have either supporting or opposing so that we can all better understand these amazing objects.

Dear List, Jim and I are just about finished with our overhaul of MeteoriteTimes. The last few days I've been working on the new opening page and thinking of all the wonderful meteorites that have been in MeteoriteTimes and which ones to choose...

Some have nice rims...where others are kind of sunk in with no rim. Also, and almost more puzzling, I have seen more that are oval rather then round. I would think...without anything to back me back...that the more round versions with nice rims are bubbles coming out. It just seems to me that would happen. Oval ones that are sunk in are a little more confusing as I can't seem to image injection or bubbling out forming such features. I am of course ignoring other forces at work during or after tektite formation...such as motion or weathering.

[meteorite-list] paper About Tunguska Event Impactor
In the March (2004) issue of Planetary and Space Science, there is a paper discussing the identity of the impactor, which produced the Tunguska Event, that might be of interest to some list members. The paper is: Q. L. Hou , E. M. Kolesnikov , L. W. Xie , N. V. Kolesnikova , M. F. Zhou and M. Sun, 2004, Platinum group element abundances in a peat layer associated with the Tunguska event, further evidence for a cosmic origin. Planetary and Space Science. vol. 52, no. 4, pp. 331-340 doi:10.1016/j.pss.2003.08.002 Based upon excess Pd, Rh, Ru, REE, Co, Sr, and Y found in a peat column from the Northern peat bog of the 1908 Tunguska explosion site, they concluded that the impactor, which created the Tunguska event was more likely a comet, although the possibility that the impactor might have alternatively been a carbonaceous asteroid. They estimated that the mass of either the comet or carbonaceous asteroid was as large as 103-106 tons. I am only reporting what this paper stated. I don't know enough about the pro and cons of the various arguments about the Tunguska event to evaluate their conclusions in any intelligent manner. If anybody needs more information, he or she can find contact information for the authors by clicking the link, Volume 52, Issue 4, pp. 259-340 (March 2004) at: http://www.sciencedirect.com/science/journal/00320633 and following the article link to the abstract.

[meteorite-list] Shirokovsky - Some Thoughts
Peter Marmet wrote: as far as I know, the lastest info is still this special statement of the meteoritical society: http://www.meteoriticalsociety.org/bulletin/shirokovsky.pdf One really curious thing about the Shirokovsky material is that its K-Ar age of the olivine is about 270 million years. This is curious because there are metalliferous ultramafic rocks of that age, which contain dunite, a rock composed entirely of olivine. What is also most curious is that Au, Ir, and Os of the olivine is typical of olivine found in Cu-Ni deposits. It is curious because, there are large ultramafic Cu-Ni ore deposits that occur in Russia which contain olivine-rich rocks. For example, there are seven major ore deposits associated with the basal portions of such olivine rich intrusives in the Noril'sk / Talnakh Ni-Cu-PGE (Platinum-Group Elements) ore deposits. By coincidence or not, these olivine-rich intrusives are part of subsurface sills associated with extensive flood basalt accumulations, called the Siberian Traps, is about 251 million years in age, which is quite close to the about 270 million years age of the Shirokovsky material. The inexact age determination made on it, could be off by 20 million years. Within the Central Urals, there are numerous ultramafic complexes that contain dunites associated with rich chromite and PGE (Platinum-Group Elements) mineralization and ores. Any of these could be potential nearby sources of the olivine, which might have been associated with ore being transported or smelted. Given the detailed analyses of the olivine in the Shirokovsky material, a person should be able to determine whether any potential / possible source for the olivine described in the above Meteoritical Society Report exists within Russia. mark ford wrote: In all the pictures I have seen, to me it doesn't quite seem right for a pallasite the crystals look a bit too sharp and pointed', (just an observation) anyone agree with me?

After comparing them, there appears to be, in my opinion, a rather drastic difference in the texture of the olivine grains within each. In the pallasites, indvidual grains are equant and either rounded or euhedral. Also, in the pallasites, a person can find examples of olivine grains that have coalesced together. Examples of this texture can be seen at: http://www.meteoriteman.com/collection/thiel.htm http://www.meteoriteman.com/collection/dora.htm http://www.meteoriteman.com/collection/mtvernon.htm http://meteorites.asu.edu/pallasite.jpg In comparison, pictures of the pieces of Shirokovsky that I have found have a different texture. the olivine crystals are far more angular and variable in outline than found in the pallasites, for which I found pictures. In fact, some of the olivine pieces in pictures of Shirokovsky are even flat rectagular blades quite unlike anything seen in true pallasites. In addition, I don't see any of the merged / coalesced olivines seen in other, Overall, the Shirokovsky has the appearance of a terrazzo floor made up of fragmented rocks.

[meteorite-list] Loaves and fishiness
Marc D. Fries wrote: I'm rather intrigued with Shirokovsky. Yes, I agree, it is an interesting X-File type of object. I might track down some metallurgists, whom I know, to see what they have to say. Also, my Russian wife can translate into and type letters in Russian on my Russified Mac, if needed. In looking at the pictures, a couple of things jump out - first off, most of the pieces are shaped like loaves of bread, or like ingots. In terms of being ...then sand-cast the resulting melt into fine sand pre-forms roughly pounded out to look like meteorites., they seem to be too ingot-like to have been made as deliberate fakes formed to look like meteorites. To me, the ingot-like forms suggest some sort of industrial by-product, not something shaped to deceive. My (naive?) impression is that we are dealing with self-delusion on a massive scale instead of fraud. That the olivines are of a type associated with Ni-Cu ores and of the approximate age of Ni-Cu ores associated such deposits suggests to me that whatever created the Shirokovsky material might have something to do with the smelting of such ores. The local Ural olivines are far too old and not associated with Ni-Cu ores from what I can tell and, thus can't be their source. If Shirokovsky was made simply as a fake, the people involved logically wouldn't have ignored local olivines,in favor of more distance olivines associated with the Ni-Cu ores. (Also, it doesn't look like it has been underwater for 44 years. (Of course the water is cold, but still there should be some obvious corrosion.) Secondly, the comment that the olivines did not equilibrate with the metal matrix, but rather cooled quickly in a strongly oxidizing environment is interesting. An oxidizing environment such as ...air?? This is a devasating argument. Quick cooling in an oxidizing environment certainly puts the stake in heart, as if it was needed, of the meteorite interpretation. Also, I get the feeling that the promoters of it make much of a nonexistent connection between the hole in the ice and what was found on the bottom of the reservoir. Given that the fall happened in 1956, how do they know exactly where to search in 2002 some 44 years later? Are there any records of someone determining the location of the hole in 1956 with a survey before the ice melted? It would be interesting to find out what sort boat and barge traffic uses the Kosva River near Shirokovsky. If there is any sort of commercial or industrial traffic, there is almost an unlimited variety of stuff that could get dumped into the reservoir. I suspect the promoters of this material as a meteorite likely don't realize that all sorts of really weird stuff gets dumped into reservoirs. Yours, Paul Baton Rouge, LA __ Do you Yahoo!?

[meteorite-list] Mysterious Rosicrucian Meteorite - What Was It?
I was searching through Google News Search Engine to see if I coulkd find anything more about the story of the alleged fireball that set fire to the vollage in Egypt. Instead the keywords Egpyt and meteorite gave me the following article: Rosicrucians make pilgrimage to San Jose Biloxi Sun Herald, MS, Jul. 03, 2004 http://www.sunherald.com/mld/sunherald/news/nation/9075308.htm. Talking about the Rosicrucians' headquarters, it stated: For generations of San Joseans, it's an eclectic theme park incongruously set in an otherwise ordinary neighborhood of leafy streets and picturesque homes. Its onion-domed planetarium, statue of Pharaoh Thutmose III, 60-foot obelisk and Egyptian-style buildings with hieroglyphs and columns recall school- day field trips. Talking about children taking these fieldtrips, it stated: Later, as adults, they may have strolled its lush gardens or read about the mystery of the missing 209-pound meteorite. (The exhibit, which had been on display 40 years, was stolen by a former security contractor and never found.) A 209 pound meteorite sounds like an awfully large meteorite to have disappeared into thin air. Does anyone know about the history of this meteorite as to where it was found, type of meteorite, when it was stolen, and so forth? Yours, Paul Baton Rouge, LA __ Do You Yahoo!? Tired of spam? Yahoo!
