>I have just got 350 grams of the NEW GOLD BASIN meteorite from Arizona
>from the finder toady! I have several fragments and half stone pieces.
>The finders are not releasing hardly ANY of this meteorite onto the
>market so GET IT NOW if you want a specimen of this locality! I have
>posted this to the list because of the interest that this meteorite
>stired up when announced last week! I saw one piece cut in half
>yesterday and it looks GREAT inside! Lots of metal even though it is an
>ancient fall estimated at many thousands of years ago! That is due to
>the incredible dry climate of the mohave desert where it fell. I may cut
>some into slices soon so please contact me for prices, weight and
>specimens. These are still in the University of Arizona specimen bags
>with the catalog numbers! These will not likely last out the day so
>reserve one now.
