Hi Martin, nice picts, many thanks! Don't you think that Agpalilik looks a bit sad and lonely on this rusty rack in the backyard of the University of Copenhagen?!

Re: Re: [meteorite-list] Big is beatuful
Hi All, I guess if we are commenting on the pics, then I'll chime in. The photo labeled Ahnighito is one of the other masses. I think it is the woman. Here is a pic of Ahnighito. In fact, several. http://www.meteorite-times.com/Back_Links/2006/October/Accretion_Desk.htm Cheers, Martin On 10/27/06, Jeff Kuyken [EMAIL PROTECTED] wrote: The Mundrabilla main mass was recently moved and reweighed.

[meteorite-list] Big is beatuful - Morasko
Hi I forgot to say last news. Actualy main mass of Morasko increased from around 80kg to around 200kg This year was discovered inside crater a large, single specimen. Specimen was placed on scale that have limit of 130kg and scale was broken, so suspicious weight must be around 200kg. http://republika.pl/jotde/meteoryty/METEORYT.htm Specimen will be on cover of next Meteoryt magazine, polish edition of Meteorite magazine. Last photo on page show this Morasko specimen. Click on it to download short PDF with magazine cover and first page in full size for better view. TKW of morasko must be now around 1.5 tons, maybe up to 2 tons. And there are still specimens in the ground. Who knows what a monster still sit into these craters. Unfortunatelly, craters are protected and specimen was found by University members with special permission. What meteorite is the biggest in europe ? Lets exclude Muonionalusta. There was found not long time ago silicated iron around 500kg if Im correct. Anything else big enough? I only hope they will not get idea about cutting this specimen. My damn morasko murdered tooday 4 band saws when we tryed to cut 2 slices. It go nice into 80% of specimen and then bummm, band saw destroyed. New one was dull in 60 seconds, next one dull and broken. Horror. And finally there was nothing except some shraibersyte and troilite inclusion. I have enough for tooday :( -[ MARCIN CIMALA ]-[ I.M.C.A.#3667 ]- http://www.Meteoryt.net [EMAIL PROTECTED] http://www.PolandMET.com [EMAIL PROTECTED] http://www.Gao-Guenie.com GSM +48(607)535 195 [ Member of Polish Meteoritical Society ] __ Meteorite-list mailing list Meteorite-list@meteoritecentral.com http://six.pairlist.net/mailman/listinfo/meteorite-list

Hey, go on, Marcin! Probably it's a big, big diamond, hidden in your Morasko, which destroyed the blades.

Re-2: [meteorite-list] Big is beatuful
The Mundrabilla main mass was recently moved and reweighed. The correct weight is actually 12.4t! That's nearly 1t heavier than previously stated. Hi Jeff and List, As for the piece in *this* bw picture, it's not located in Australia but used to be at the MPI Heidelberg - at least when I took *this* picture back in 1990 ;-) The text on the overexposed label says: Mundrabilla 1. Anschnitt or Mundrabilla 1st cut (slice) Cheers, Bernd To: [EMAIL PROTECTED] meteorite-list@meteoritecentral.com __ Meteorite-list mailing list Meteorite-list@meteoritecentral.com http://six.pairlist.net/mailman/listinfo/meteorite-list
