[meteorite-list] Tucson show internet access phonecard

2013-01-28 Thread
To my meteorite friends who live in Tucson or familiar with the place: This is 
my first time to attending the show, and I had made the plan to drive by myself 
from the TUS international airport to the hotel I booked and drive to those 
show places. In that condition, I need to purchase a monthly phonecard or a 
pay-in-advance phonecard to provide an internet access for my Iphone, so that 
I can use the google map thru the phone and get my way easily. Could anyone 
tell me where is the nearest place to purchase the phonecard around the TUS 
international airport, and how much it will cost for a monthly card with 1G 
internet flow rate? Any replies or suggestions will be appreciated, many thanks!

[meteorite-list] Accommodation for Tucson Gem Mineral show

2012-10-07 Thread
To my meteorite friends living in Tucson:

I am planning to attend the Tucson show as a visitor next Feb, and now I 
prepare to book a hotel or rent a room for my trip. If anyone of you work on 
the show every year and will go to the show every morning (will bring me to the 
show every day), that is my best choise to rent a room from you.

Any offers or recommendations will be appreciated.
PS: I am a member of the meteoritical society, and good in Chiese cooking, and 
easy to talk with.

Best regards!
Bryan

 Hi Wu and List,
 
 Great photos Wu, thanks for sharing
 them.   :)
 
 So, let me ask a question to the hammer-meteorite collectors
 -
 
 This meteorite struck a paved road.  So, does this mean
 it is a hammer fall?
 
 Best regards,
 
 MikeG

[meteorite-list] New fall in China

2012-02-26 Thread
Hi Martin,
The man appeared on the video I know him very well, and is not the scientist. 
He is a collector like you and me. But he is very like to do some basic 
research on meteorites.
The content of the video is just to show how he cut, grind the meteorite,and 
also he guess the meteorite classification is L5, shock stage is S2. Then he 
made a micro probe in a laboratary which is owned by Geological University in 
Beijing I guess. His resualt is found there is mica in the meteorite,but all of 
the final result should wait for the scientists.
So long,
Wu


Dear Wu and list members,

This broadcast seems to show the first analyses of the new meteorite.

Unfortunately, I don't understand anything, but it's very nice to watch anyway.

I would like to know what they have already found out.

Thanks!

Re: [meteorite-list] New Fall in China further information

2012-02-24 Thread
Hi Jim and lists,
I am sure that Jim's source must got the information from the media, and here 
is the original link for the news the source provided to Jim:

http://tech.sina.com.cn/d/2012-02-22/14026755191.shtml

Unfortunately the linked original news was in Chinese. If anyone here could 
translate the news especially the last 3 paragraphs to Jim, I will be 
appriciated, cause I don't have the time to do that at the moment.

If Jim had seen the information and pictures I provided yesterday, I think Jim 
will change his mind regarding the news. The so called expert is that who 
claimed to have found the translucent crystal things in the mitrix of a 
meteorite fragment. Acturally, the tanslucent crystal things are qurtz and sand 
embeded in the concrete fragment,which were broken from the concrete road in 
Yehong village. And this big funny joke is just included in the above linked 
news,the third downcounted paragraph.

I was in the falling area for two times and collected the information from over 
50 witnesses who lived in the different 4 villages. All of the witnesses in the 
falling area have not seen the big fireball, instead they all heard the big 
resonating noises. However, there is some people who realy had seen the 
fireball explosion while hiking in the neighboring county, which is North East 
about 40 Kg from the falling area. Those Hiking people reported the event to 
Qinghai news media,and had been published.

The so called expert Zhang Baolin confused the concept of fragment and 
individual. What I had seen is until now there is only 1 individual had been 
collected,which is 12.5kg. I cannot say there is only one individual exist,but 
hundreds of individuals are not true!

Best wishes!
Wu Yonghui

According to my source, this news missed most news sources.  100's of 
witnesses at lunch time saw this huge fireball and experts estimate hundreds 
of stones still on the ground, in the snow estimated from 5g to 20kg.  Many 
specimens recovered in a 6km x 3km zone.  I believe the largest recovered 
specimen is about 12.5kg
I suspect we should be seeing some of this in the near future!

Cheers!


Jim

Re: [meteorite-list] New Fall in China further information

2012-02-24 Thread
Hello Jim,

I am glad you reply the massage so fast. I had been in the falling place from 
16th to 18th Feb. The county's name is Huangzhong, and about 50 Kg northwest of 
Xining City, so I accomodateed in Xining during the night,and drive to the 
falling area every day. 

There are 4 bigger pieces landed in 4 villages.The biggest one is 12.5kg 
individual, landed on the mountain top of Xiaosigou village; the second bigger 
piece 7.5kg,which is broken while landing, in Baiya village; the third piece 
less than 5kg also broken,landed in in a villager's houseyard,Hergey 
village;the fourth one landed on the concrete road of Yehong village,broken 
into many pieces,and cannot calculate the exact weight,but according to the 
crater,should be no less than 2kg.

If you are not sure about the source of your information, I wish you will trust 
me. I'd been there myself. In the following link, please find some 
pictures,which I took in the falling area.But the copyright is reserved,please 
do not use it without my permittion.

http://www.flickr.com/photos/49390711@N03/?saved=1

The classification of the meteorite should be L5 or L6, shock stage should be 
around 3, but everything we have to wait the final resault by the scientists. 
To some extent, I feel this shower is a little bit like Suizhou shower in 1986, 
or Yanzhuang Shower in 1993. There are only bigger pieces been found,and havn't 
seen any smaller individuals until now. What I can say is this shower is not 
like Juancheng 1997 fall,which has so many small individuals.

Regards!

Hi Wu!

I had not seen this post you mention and your assumptions about my 
information source are not correct and the link you provided does not have 
the information I received.  I do not know where the information I received 
from my source came from, other than China.  However, I am glad you are 
sharing more information.  As information comes in, many reports get twisted 
and pretty soon fact and fiction become one.

It is my understanding that many stones have been recovered. 12.5kg, 10kg, 
2- 5kg, 2.5kg and a 4.2kg.  I do not know the originating source of this 
information.

The news media in my area has not reported this event to the best of my 
knowledge and today is the first I had heard about it.  A quick search of AP 
news did not indicate anything from China recently doing a search for 
'meteor'.  It was a quick non-advanced search.  In regards to media, it has 
basically not been breaking news for what-ever reason.

Has it been determined what kind of meteorites are being recovered?

If you are hunting, I do hope you find more and I wish you good luck!

Kind Regards,


Jim

[meteorite-list] New Fall in China

2012-02-23 Thread
Dear members,
I am very appriciate that Martin put so many links regarding the new fall in 
Huangzhong, Qinghai province, China. I was in the falling area from 16th, to 
18th Feb,and had collected the informaitons together with the pictures. 
I noticed there must be some mistake in the media reporting. Such as hundreds 
of meteorites were falling, that is not true! There are only 4 pieces were 
recovered until now, and except the biggest one, which is 12.5kg landing on a 
mountain top of Xiaosigou village, the other 3 pieces were all bronken while 
landing. what I have seen is there are hundreds of fragments, not individuals! 
And also the expert from Beijing Planetarium said he had found crystal things 
in the mitrix is also a big funny joke! There is one piece landed on the 
concrete road of Yehong village,and made a shallow crater (please see the 
photoes in the following link), and what the expert collected is a broken piece 
from the concrete road, and the crystal things he said should be the sand and 
quartz in the concrete. I have purchased several hundred grams of fragments,and 
also found there is some concrete pieces included, because their colors are 
very close and villagers cannot
 distinguish concrete pieces from meteorite fragments. 
Here is the link of my photoes, copyright is reserved,please do not use them 
without my permittion. http://www.flickr.com/photos/49390711@N03/?saved=1 If 
anyone who has the interests on any kind of information regarding this fall, 
please feel free to contact me. 
Best wishes!

[meteorite-list] New Fall in China further information

2012-02-23 Thread
Hi Gary, 
Yes, I had seen the news on your link on 17th Feb, and at that time I was still 
in Xining,Qinghai province. The expert appeared on the news is Dr. Miao 
Bingkui, he had been in Grove Mountains, Antarctic, for two times to search for 
meteorites. The big individual meteorite appeared on the news is the only 
uncovered individual of this meteorite shower, which is 12.5kg, and landed on 
the mountain top of Xiaosigou village as I had told you and other members 
several days ago. The other broken piece on the news was landed in Baiya 
village, and I had been to the crater to take photoes, get coordinates, 
searching and purchaing meteorite fragments.Some of my fragment were from this 
village.The following link is the Baiya Crater 

http://farm8.staticflickr.com/7062/6909517075_7c4f942fd7_m.jpg 

Until now I have not heared about if there is any new pieces had been found, I 
mean the total weight of this shower is still around 30kg. Some pieces such as 
appeared on the news are still in the villager's hand,and they offered at 
outrageous prices. they want to be milionaires by their meteorite pieces. The 
problem is the villagers lack the knowledge on how to preserve the meteorites, 
they simply use the plastic bag to cover the meteorites, and do not care 
whether the bag is wet or humid. I am sure the weathering stage of those local 
samples will be higher and higher. 
Best wishes!

 Do the researchers say anything about the stone's classification?  Do you
