Thanks for these updates Ron. It's really fascinating to see these new Martian vistas and this is quite a remarkable shot when you download the larger version. Did anyone notice the big Hot Cross Bun (http://images.google.com.au/images?hl=enq=hot%20cross%20bun) rock in the top right background on

[meteorite-list] Meteorite Insurance Annual International Meteorite Trade Turnover

Interesting question Mike. I've always wondered what the entire annual international turnover of the meteorite trade would be? Including all sales and trades both private and commercial. Many pieces would even be sold 2 or 3 times in the one year. I bet it would add up very quickly... $25M...

Re: [meteorite-list] Updated Norwegian meteorite classification guesses

Howdy, CO's will have enough attraction to a magnet. My guess: CO3.3, S1, W0 But that's just a rough guess! ;-) Cheers, Jeff - Original Message - From: Matson, Robert To: meteorite-list@meteoritecentral.com Sent: Wednesday, July 19, 2006 2:32 AM Subject: [meteorite-list] Updated

[meteorite-list] Early reports of large Australian fireball

Howdy, I just got an email from someone saying they witnessed a huge meteor over NSW, Australia. From his description it sounds big enough to drop pieces. If it should be reported in the media and anyone happens to see something about it, I'd certainly appreciate the link. Thanks, Jeff

[meteorite-list] Black inclusions in NWA R-Chondrites?

G'day, I'm hoping someone may know of an abstract/personal/web info on the black (xenolithic?) inclusions found in some of the NWA R-Chondrites? Here is an example: http://www.meteorites.com.au/features/nwa2921.html Any info would be appreciated either on or off-list. Thanks, Jeff

Re: [meteorite-list] Black inclusions in NWA R-Chondrites?

Thanks to everyone who replied both on and off-list regarding the Rumuruti chondrites and their black inclusions. I will update the my page over the next week or two with the info. Thanks again, Jeff - Original Message - From: [EMAIL PROTECTED] To: Meteorite-list@meteoritecentral.com

[meteorite-list] Monthly Favourite - August 2006

www.meteorites.com.au/favourite.html I have been waiting for a piece of this one for years. A great meteorite. Cheers, Jeff __ Meteorite-list mailing list Meteorite-list@meteoritecentral.com http://six.pairlist.net/mailman/listinfo/meteorite-list

in another unrelated meteorite, NWA 3119 (LL4). http://www.meteorites.com.au/features/nwa3119.html Cheers, Jeff P.S. Thanks to Norbert Kammel for slicing this beauty for me! - Original Message - From: Jeff Kuyken To: Meteorite-list@meteoritecentral.com ; [EMAIL PROTECTED] Sent: Tuesday

Re: [meteorite-list] NWA 3119 (LL4)

Hi Bernd, Jerry List, NWA 3119 is a great meteorite and one of my favourites! I would have to agree with Bernd's comments that it is probably a type-3 (breccia?). The problem is that it seems to be a fairly heterogenous meteorite which probably makes classification very type specimen dependent.

[meteorite-list] Happy Meteorite Birthday - August 14th

Wow, I was just looking up a meteorite and realised today is the anniversary of a few falls. * Cape Girardeau (H6) - Fell 1846 making today the 160th Anniversary. These two fell just hours apart in 1962: * Bogou (IAB) * Sao Jose do Rio Preto (H4) And of course: * Mbale (L5/6) - Fell 1992 Odds

Re: [meteorite-list] Moss Meteorite From A Comet?

Howdy Bernd, Rick all, Just curious because I recently read somewhere (maybe this list actually but can't remember) that the CH (or CB?) chondrites may now be the best match to a cometary origin. I think this was after Deep Impact. Anyone remember or know more? Cheers, Jeff - Original

[meteorite-list] Moss Meteorite

Howdy, I just got a piece of the new Norwegian fall and thought I'd make a few quick observations and pics. Sorry I didin't have time to do it a bit more in depth but here's what I came up with so far. I'll work on it some more over the weekend. http://www.meteorites.com.au/features/moss.html

Re: [meteorite-list] Moss Meteorite

Hi Bernd, David and all, Whatever this meteorite is, it's certainly a very interesting one. Bernd's description of enigmatic is quite appropriate. Since I have never personally seen a K-Chondrite, it didn't even cross my mind. But I did some reading after David's Kakangari suggestion and must say
