Re:
>Does someone have some information on the Carver meteorite?
Hi Tim,
Here are some basics about Carver.
Carver
Alabama, USA.
Iron: Ataxite, Type: IIA.
Found: unknown.
Total known weight: 9.5 kg known.
I believe the BM catalog lists the TKW only as the one known piece which
was in an institution collection. Recently, a piece was traded out of the
collection, and Marlin Cilz sliced it into about a half dozen complete
slices. I believe Blaine Reed offered smaller pieces of it several months
ago, but is now sold out.
Hope this helps,
Sincerely,
Martin
