Re: [meteorite-list] Unknown irons at ASU
Looking at your slices and their widmanstatten patterns it strikes me there is scope here for a book about identifying widmanstatten patterns and their subtle characteristics for individual finds/fallsor is their already one I'm not aware of...now there's a project for someone! Sorry can't help with identification, I'd just be guessingalthough pretty sure non of them is Taza.

Re: [meteorite-list] Unknown irons at ASU
Hi Martin, In a way that's what I was saying.many etched iron slices have very characteristic patterns with regularly occurring inclusions etc which show up differently on the cut angleso as a project it would be very complex and would need to show how those things differ (or are similar) in each meteorite for different anglesbut it could be a wonderful resource if someone had the time and expertise to compile an illustrated book.. I would certainly buy it.

Re: [meteorite-list] Unknown irons at ASU
Hello All, Iron number one is not Tafrawhet (NWA 860). The expression of widmanstatten patterns on irons' cut surfaces is governed by how a given iron is cut relative to the iron's internal octahedral structure. When cut parallel to the 001 miller indicatrix of the taenite octahedrons, they express a cubic, blocky structure: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/File:Cutting_the_octaedron.gif For a great example of this, check any Cape York slices you might have; for some reason, most, if not all, of the Cape York on the market was cut like this. #1) Far too fresh to be your average Gibeon. While it *could* be Gibeon based on the pattern, it looks a little off, and the outer edge of that slice looks very fresh/possibly fusion crusted. Some Gibeons have fusion crust, but it's occurrence is so rare that I would hesitate before calling this slice Gibeon. I like Mirko's guess of Page City. I've seen photos of the main mass, and it was quite fresh, with a similar pattern. But I wouldn't consider that adequate evidence for determining what it is. If the size/shape matches up, maybe then... - What is certain is that it's not a plessitic octahedrite like Taza. #2) Now there's a good match for Tafrawhet if I've ever seen one. The main mass has a crack running down the middle, and it even has a thin black line running at an angle to the pattern - just like this slice! And a globby troilite inclusion *just like the one pictured* I can only assume that Matt mistook #2 for #1, because I think that #2 is actually a slice of NWA 860. Here's one: http://www.arizonaskiesmeteorites.com/AZ_Skies_Links/Tafrawet/ Note the crack I mentioned -- also visible in this slice -- and the shape matches up as well! -- And that black line running at an angle!!! I'd say this one's in the bag. #3) I've seen plenty of irons that look similar - best bet would probably be to do as some others have said and peruse Buchwald hoping to find something that looks good. #4) Yeah, talk about a dead ringer for Tambo Quemado, but...you say it's from an 1800's collection. Smith's Mountain? Sure... Best of luck -- glad I could help out with #2 anyways.
