Hello list,

I am curious if anyone has ever observed an iron meteorite with a
widmanstatten pattern on the outside or I guess what would be the
outside or a weathered iron meteorite?  I have a very small SaW 005
that shows the patten after cleaning with a mild vinegar solution,
under the microscope.  I've tried to capture some pictures, but am
unable at this time through the scope.  Very interesting indeed, and
if anyone has had experiences with this I would like to hear about
them or see them too.

Re: [meteorite-list] Widmanstatten Pattern on the outside??

2011-05-10 Thread Galactic Stone Ironworks
Hi Jay,

Yes, I have seen external widmanstatten patterns on many irons -
usually weathered ones.

Sometimes it is more obvious than others.  It depends on the iron type
and the condition of the specimen.

See this Canyon Diablo.  It was very oxidized, but was then treated
with the Pat Mulvany process.  The outer rind of oxidation was removed
and now the internal widmanstatten pattern is visible on portions of
the outer surface.

Best regards,

MikeG

[meteorite-list] Widmanstatten Pattern on the outside??

2011-05-10 Thread Bernd V. Pauli
Jason Snyder inquired:

meteorite with a widmanstatten pattern on the outside

Hello All,

Another famous example are so-called Gibeon octahedron crystals.
For more info on these crystals, see here:

The Gibeon Iron Meteorite in Perfect Crystals
by Roland Dietrich  Stefan König in:
 
Meteorite!  February 1997, pp. 28-29.

I have an 8-gram, tumbled octahedron Gibeon crystal in my collection
and its Widmanstätten pattern is easily recognizable on the outside!

Best wishes,

Bernd

Hi Bernd and all,

Another example is the China Iron (that tends to rust) name fails me 
right now but lots of material has been sold in the past. They were 
putting those in acid and letting them eat the outsides off then 
selling them as smaller pieces after treatment. Those were highly 
crystalized showing the widmanstatton (sorry Kevin) pattern, and I saw 
lots of flats of those in the past from our China friends.
