Re: [meteorite-list] Does anyone recognize this specimen?

You said that a geochemist work extensive experience in studying meteorites 
said it was a eucrite. I said it wasn't and you implied that someone far 
superior to me thought otherwise. 
What kind of moronic games are you playing? 
Either it has been studied or it hasn't.  Make up your mind. Learn about 
meteorites because that isn't one.

 Doesn't look at all like a meteorite. I stand by that. Doesn't mean I'm

 For reasons I will not get into right now, I have been asked to reach

 Here is a link to some photos:

 This relates to a possible misrepresentation of a specimen, and a

 out other opinions regarding the origin of this specimen.
 
 Bear in mind, I am not asking for help on potential classification,

 Please contact me off list if you recognize this specimen and can

 Thank you very much for your time and consideration!

But you just said a geochemist with extensive meteorite study credentials has

Just look at the second photo. Looks like a river pebble with such odd surface

Sorry, I wouldn't pay a nickel for it with those photos.

John, I certainly do not recognize it and have already provided my thoughts, 
but can you provide any details? When was it sold, where, was it part of a lot 
or an individual, is this a stone from Morocco or an US find? Added info might 
trigger people to remember ...

I'll be sure to let the PHD level Geochemist with decades worth of experience 
classifying meteorites know that...

Really I'm only asking if anyone recognizes it from a recent sale.  The lab was 
given a specific story and like diligent scientists they are trying to disprove 
it.

If anyone has seen it for sale recently please let me know.
Thank you,
John

Mendy,
I'm not going to comment on whether I think it is or is not a meteorite.  There 
are professionals working on it and they will better determine that than these 
photos alone will.
But, I appreciate your insights as usual.
Hope business is going good.  :-)
Cheers,
John

Well, the way you phrased the request makes it tough to fulfill because best I 
can tell on my iPhone, this is terrestrial.

Dear List,

For reasons I will not get into right now, I have been asked to reach out to

Here is a link to some photos:

https://www.dropbox.com/sh/z1wuakhrxa7s8uy/AABaOdwIdfLfstsBklRyNTVra?dl=0

This relates to a possible misrepresentation of a specimen, and a friend of 
mine in the meteorite community has asked that I try to seek out other opinions 
regarding the origin of this specimen.

Bear in mind, I am not asking for help on potential classification, nor am I 
asking if it is or is not a meteorite. 

Please contact me off list if you recognize this specimen and can share 
information related to a recent sale/transaction concerning it.

Thank you very much for your time and consideration!

[meteorite-list] Does anyone recognize this specimen?

Dear List,
Hope you are all doing well this weekend.

For reasons I will not get into right now, I have been asked to reach out to 
the meteorite community and see if anyone recognizes this specimen from a

Please contact me off list if you recognize this specimen and can share
